A decent online bank !

4
I have my Current Account around 4 years and I never had any issue. I have been traveling and the change from pounds to euros was a very good rate comparing to others. Low commissions in some Spanish banks which was very helpful when I had to take money out the machine. Plus on the app there is a section called “Space” which helps to put a side the amount of money you want (like q saving account) and with no commissions at all. Happy with Starling I really recommend it :) Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Beautifully simple, intuitive app

Beautifully simple, intuitive app with innovative features like savings goals, instant notifications, maps, spending insights... 24x7 friendly and effective customer service. Great fix rates in card and international payments. It just kinda works. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

As beautiful as its name-sake

5
What can I say about Starling that hasn't already been already said. Clean, ethical banking. Crisp, beautiful app with effortless quality and that touch of class that sets it apart from its competitors, all whilst providing the same and more banking features. Starling made me like banks again because it just doesn't feel like a cumbersome, antiquated financial institution. They are transparent in their values and ethics and I respect that most. They're app is also absolutely beautiful throughout Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Simplicity personified

5
I have total control over all my banking activities via the app. It couldn’t be more user friendly and simple. I have confidence in the safety and security of my money and the additional reassurance of being covered by the FSCA. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Best move I have ever made

5
Have been with Starling just over a year now and it has been the best thing that I have ever done as it is a bank that is on the ball up to the minute information on my money even ahead of time upcoming outgoing events, cheques clear I'm 2 days submitted by photo and 24 7 access to somebody who can help. It is the future of banking for the modern working world, as not many people can get to the high street during open hours, or even call the telephone banking services of the high street Bank that has restricted available hours. Keep up the good service Starling Reviewed on: 15th April 2021
