A Five Star Product

During the Covid19 pandemic my Starling debit card has been much used and it’s so easy to keep track of your spending and see where your money goes by using their online services which are clear and easy to follow. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

User Friendly

Starling Bank is so user friendly, quick and easy, when making a contactless purchase with my Apple Watch, I have my acknowledgment of the transaction from Starling before the receipt is printed by the the merchant, how cool is that. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Love this bank!

5
Starling makes banking so easy. I can easily see my balance, I know immediately when a payment has gone through, and it’s just so easy to set up saving pots, and move money around. I particularly love the Nearby Payments function. If my friend pays the bill at the restaurant, I can quickly zip the money over to her while we’re sitting there. No messing with splitting the bill. So fast and so easy! Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Putting my money in order

Having the spaces for each pot I would like to save for alongside my child’s bank account keeps things clear and simple for me and encourages me to keep saving little and often to achieve my saving goals Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Great bank.

Great bank, not had any bother at all. Love the app, give you clear indication of where your money is come form and going too. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Sleek and reliable

5
I have set up a Starling account a few years ago and did not regret it. I enjoy using clever things like the Space where I saved up £800 with the rounding function. The app is so user friendly, it’s so much more enjoyable to do internet banking with Starling than with the old school high street banks who are so behind in terms of keeping up with 21st century demand. Thoroughly recommended. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021
