A helpful bank at last!

5
I switched to Starling last year and I can honestly that I’ve never felt as enthusiastic for a bank in my life! Everything is so simple and easy, and I genuinely feel as if the whole customer experience has been designed (and continuously evolves) around the needs of the customer. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Game changer

5
Truly a breath of fresh air with an accessible and highly functional banking product which the old guard of retail banking are scrabbling to catch up with. So glad I trusted Starling with looking after some of my hard earned dollar. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Best optimized easy to use app ever

5
A light compact and easy to use banking app. It has a friendly and visualised data interface too so you can easily see where your money went to and create different saving spaces, set goals and achieve them. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Simple instant banking

4
The two main features that made me move to starling are the ability to withdraw money abroad without paying fees and the instant update on my account, soon as I pay for something. I always know what my current balance is. No transactions taking three days to show up in my account, as with my previous bank. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

The worlds only bank

5
My experience as a starling currently account customer is nothing short of amazing. I started using the account casually alongside my main bank account. I soon started to realise how much better I understood my finances with infographic style account breakdown which really helped me budget my money and see where I could make savings on things where I may have wasted money and all in one place. Not least when I had to make myself bankrupt when all other banks turned their noses up, starting send me a lovely message saying "we know how hard these times must be for you so we wanted to let you know despite your bankruptcy you can use your account as usual" I thought that was an extra mile type of message, something I'd doubt any other bank would have the inclination to do. I really hope they win! They deserve it! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
