Have fully switched to Starling a few months ago, and God I was in for a great ride! It's helped me manage my finances a lot better and everything just works. Everything makes sense in the app or online banking, there's no more juggling between a million links that you will never click just to check your direct debits. Everything's just spot-on!

How Banking should be

Great easy to use App supported by great uk based customer service. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

First class service

5
I really love starling bank. Their app is excellent, I’ve found it much easier to use than competing app-only banks. It integrates well with third party services and It even has cheque support simply taking a photo. Phone support is available if ever you need it, although it’s very rarely needed. Another thing I appreciate is that they have a clear ethics policy, which cannot be said for competing app-only banks. I can’t recommend them enough, though if I do - they’ll plant a tree through their referral scheme. Which is another bonus point from me! Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Starling. Straightforward, no frills, no fuss current account. Designed from a consumer point of view by a technology company, not a bank. A great job by a small company. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021
