Ace

Ace bank account with no issues. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

The best online bank

Since opening my online bank I have never looked back it's very easy to log in with biometrics and easy to do things in the app and online. I am loving the bank and I vote for them Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Online winner

I opened a Starling Bank current account to benefit from lower-cost foreign transactions than my existing provider. I have been blown away by the efficiency and ease of use of the app. Simple, straightforward and a model of how other banks should work but don't. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Efficient and easy banking

Easy to understand, get an up to date read out of all transactions and no extra fees for overseas payments. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Great app, great customer service

Very impressed with Starling Bank. Everything is made so easy and visible. Such a refreshing change in my experience with banks. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

it's very easy to apply for an account and to use the app

I think my Starling current account is great. Since I travel abroad a lot (in non-covid times) I particularly welcome the free currency withdrawals in foreign parts. The app is very user friendly and it's really easy to keep track of your spending. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

The only bank for me

When I first moved to UK I couldn’t open an account in any of the “high street banks” because they wanted proof of address and nobody took government papers as that. Then I was told about online banks, I found Starling and never looked back. I’ve even gotten my fiancé and his brother to use it. Truly the best bank, so customer oriented, so transparent and accessible, there’s no bank like it Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Great new bank

Having moved from a legacy bank it's amazing to see what a customer and technology first approach can deliver. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Super bank !

Modern banking for the modern world. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Extremely simple and easy app

I love this bank. There app is so easy to use, no matter what you do. It's got some great features, like spaces to save money and automatically puts away spare change from transactions. The bank has some great features to protect people as well, such as blocking gambling transactions, ATM withdrawals and even disabling your card if you've lost it. The support from the bank itself is really good too, it's simple to contact them through the app and they always respond relatively quick or if you can't wait, you can call them too.
