Amazing way to stay in control

5
With instant access and notifications Starting bank are the best. Always in control. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

A bank for everyone

It's so easy to see where your money goes. So easy to save for things you want. So easy to save for your dreams. I love how you get notifications when money goes in or out. Even let's you know when payments are due. Even if someone has tried to take money out but there's not enough in. I love the spaces so you can keep everything together. I just love the account Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Banking and money management as it should be.

5
Starling's approach to banking is to provide all the real-time information you need to know for using, transferring and tracking your money. Reconciling payments and statements are a thing of the past with live notifications. International Euro transfers and exchanges costs are clear and upfront. Foremost, the service is uncomplicated and avoids the "in your face" approach of its competitors. The app is quick and simple to navigate and is ahead of those of both the high street and fintech offerings. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Use it for everything

5
So helpful for my own account that I've now got my business, my wife and my joint accounts on Starling too. There are so many little helpful touches that leave you feeling like you've can easily achieve the previously onerous. For any app that would be great, for a bank it is a revelation - why can't banks be like this? Starling is here to show you that they can. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Fabulous

Easy to use Bank

It works

I have used starling for 4 years and have had no problems. This bank just works with no fuss Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Best neo-bank of several I tried

5
As an early adopter and tech geek, I have tried several digital bank offerings, used them and compared experiences. Starling simply stands out: - with consistency and reliability, never disappointing, always meeting expectations, and often exceeding them. - with ever-increasing range of offerings, always innovating and bringing new features, functionalities and services. - with super-friendly service, excellent customer experience and imaginative, youthful marketing face and interaction style. For those who haven't tried it: this is NOT a colourful funky app, not simply a payment card in your phone (like most of the other 'fintechs' - it is a REAL BANK, with everything you'd expect from the old established ones, but much better service and experience. Highly recommended! Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

The very best

5
I have dealings with a number of banks - Starling is by far the best in terms of facilities, contactability and ease of use. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021
