Simple, fuss-free banking

Banking as it should be. Excellent, easy-to-use app; modern features like instant spend notifications and card controls; simple switching process. No distractions in app, trying to upset to cards and other products. So happy with Starling! Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Excellent banking experience

Probably the best banking app available linked to a highly responsive customer service team make the Starling Bank experience hard to beat. Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Amazing Bank

Very straight forward sign up process and so simple to use with added security of being able to “turn off” your cards for certain activities keeping it secure. Great for using abroad also and never have to worry about getting money exchanged. Love this bank and would recommend to everyone. Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Excellent bank

I moved to Starling a few years ago and never looked back. It provides easy access to accounts and payments to other parties. Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Best bank I've been with

I've been with starling for years now and it's been the best banking experience I've had! Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Starling helped me take control

The spaces that you can set up have been a game changer for me. Sinking funds, emergency funds, whatever the reason for a space, I can set up as many as I need and has seen me with my money/savings than I ever have. Kid great for budgeting as well, showing activity for spending. Love it Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Makes everything easy

So easy to bank with Startling, everything I want to do, savings etc are all accessible from the app on my phone. Even a Euro account connected to my current account. No problems paying with my phone unlike the last bank I used. Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

The best bank I has ever used

From day one of using starling I have always felt welcome and the staff are very helpful and friendly Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Simplicity, speed efficency

Account opened & card received in record time, 3 days. The app (on Android) works extremely well: it's sleek, streamlined and most importantly, fast, unlike my old bank app (HSBC one). Payments appear thr instance they are made - be it transfers or purchases. Same goes for incoming transfers. This makes managing daily spending a breeze. Would highly recommend. Saving spaces are great too, akin to the Monzo pots - it's a great feature I like to see adopted like this. My only gripe is relatively low interest rates current (norm currently though) and no credit card yet. Reviewed on: 18th April 2021
