Does exactly what it should and better

I originally opened my account with Starling to use my card abroad for the lowest exchange rates and no fees, however since then I discovered so many useful features that I now use it as one of my main cards. They keep updating their processes so everything is so clear and easy to use and I particularly like how easy it is to keep track of my spending in certain areas. I would highly recommend and wished other banks would follow their lead! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Starling are flying!

Opened this account in November and found it to be so easy to use and the fact that i can pop in to any Post Office to deposit cash into my account makes it so simple. I also like the fact that when i receive a cheque I don't need to go to an ATM or Bank etc to deposit it and just take a photo and it's in my account within a couple of days. I should have gone to Starling a long time ago but this is the way to go for the future. Well done Starling! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Everything you want from a bank

Everything about this bank seems to be designed with me, the customer, at the fore. I guess this should be standard but in this industry we’ve all got used to that not being the case! Such a refreshing change. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

I can do everything from my phone and its real time balance so you can see exactly what you have there and then

Easy to use great additional features in the app Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Just so easy

5
Could not believe how easy it was to just download to the minute statements and confirmation statements that I didn’t even know existed because I was so caught up with outdated processes from the so called established banks. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Does what it says on the tin.

Perfect. Can say no more......... Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Just Brilliant!

5
Had a flawless experience switching accounts from start to finish! The app is just brilliant, love the saving spaces and having everything at my fingertips. The icing on the cake is the ability to send or request payments from a simple link. Why anyone would want to bank elsewhere is beyond me! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Great service, great features!

Features like depositing a cheque via photos and the slider control for contactless payment limit make Starling stand out from the crowd (or should that be murmur)! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
