I've used Starling now for about 3 years. Their servers during this time have been fully operational. They product (current account) works without delay, as does the well written app. I can't fault Starling at all Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

So easy to deal with

I opened a Starling Personal account a couple of years ago. It took about 20 minutes and was extremely easy. Within 2 months, my wife had also opened an account and we have moved our joint account from a traditional bank. The Spaces are brilliant and a great way to save. Everything is just so easy to do yet I also feel my money is safe. Starling also listen to their customers and make Improvements based on feedback. I also love the little extras like holiday themed app icons - so unlike a modern and stuffy UK Bank! Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Fantastic

Setting up and switching to Starling Bank was very easy and no fuss. The app is really well organised for me and great features within the app what I didn’t get with my old bank. They also break it down each month where my money is going out. Also can save up money by using saving space. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

It is difficult to reinvent the bank account, however, this one has, all the family have changed over to it. No fees on holiday withdrawals, excellent exchange rates and the spaces feature is very useful for savings without needing extra accounts Reviewed on: 14th April 2021

Starling are heads and shoulders above all others in retail banking. They work with the people and for the people, making everything user-friendly and simple to understand. Their staff are always on board to help and really go the extra mile and are changing the way banking is done, for the better. Reviewed on: 14th April 2021
