Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Brilliant Bank Account

5
I have held a Starling account for a number of years and decided to move our Joint Account from Nationwide a couple of years ago - the best thing i did as it is so easy to manage our financial affairs with the comprehensive App. Would recommend it to anyone - don't stick with the larger banks.

A Very Different Way of Banking

5
What’s not to love about Starling, they certainly think outside the box of traditional banking. I love the ‘Spaces’ and use them for all sorts of things. Not just my holiday fund and spending money for the month. It helps me save towards my goals too, Really like the ease of using this card abroad too, it’s great to see my transaction in both the local currency and pounds. Definitely, a forward thinking company, I can’t wait to see what will come next… Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Best online banking experience

5
The online personal account was very easy to setup, and even easier to use. I find the instant notification when the account is used very useful as it shows my real-time balance so I always know exactly how much money I have left. Money transfers easy; in fact I've not found anything I can't do. I'm so confident in using my starling account I'm seriously considering moving my Barclays accounts over Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

We aren’t young and to be honest the thought of an online bank was a bit of a thought. We can’t praise it enough for simplicity and ease of access and has been the best move we have ever made. Well done Starling a great product. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
