The best bank

Great bank you know exactly what is happening with your money great communication overall excellent Reviewed on: 1st April 2021

Super Service

I opened a Farm shop during lock down and banks on the High street were not offering a new account to anyone. I was recommended starling. It was easy, super efficient, when I forgot my pin I was able to get it reset quickly. The app is really easy to navigate and easy to set up payments and standing orders. Any questions were answered quickly and I must say I just love the card and it's envelope. Super service and I just love that I can now keep the shop separate to my personal account.

Simply the best

I’ve had an Starling account for almost 2 years now, I still have my original bank still going but it will be a month or so before I close that and move full time to Starling. Reviewed on: 1st April 2021

User friendly

Very easy to use. I can do everything from the app and never need to login to online banking or phone a call centre. Notifications of direct debits going out a day before that they do, is helpful. The ‘spaces’ feature which enables you to break your balance down into different funds ( Spending/ Savings etc) is great. Also there is a feature which allows you to round up any spending so that your pennies go into your savings, if you want. You don’t need a card reader or any of the pain in the neck, antiquated features that a lot of other banks insist on. I’ve used a few online accounts in the past and this one is the best. The app is user friendly and makes your banking easier without the hassle you get with other companies’ online accounts. Reviewed on: 1st April 2021
