Banking for the real world

I cant even say that Starling are forward thinking. Its more that they seem to be the only bank that have REALLY listened to the average, everyday person and created a bank and an app that meets those needs. They do a few things exceptionally well, rather than having all manner of complicated, convoluted accounts and products that don't quite hit the mark. The app makes banking so simple it's almost unbelievable. And founded by a Welsh woman to top it all off. The most exciting thing to happen to modern banking in a very long time.

Excellent personal banking

We switched a year or so ago and have never looked back. You can manage the account from your phone and it is designed to make your life easier, rather than the bank. So different to high street banks. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Excellent banking experience from the start

Very responsive, intuitive and professional. Other banks could should learn from this one. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

All In One service just at fingertips.

I'm quite amazed with the starling bank and its excellent banking features but would like to suggest one thing about cash deposits, I feel considering the enormity of its users Starling Bank should install its own Cash Machines, Deposit Machines for more convenience to users and reduce the hassle of walking upto post offices or avoid extra deposit/withdrawal charges from other bank machines.
