A simply sweet experience

When other banks made life difficult by making it almost impossible to open an account during the tier 3 restrictions, Starling Bank made it so easy and the Bank app it the single most user friendly financial app that I have ever used. Simply sweet. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Very happy with Starling and it seems new features are being released all the time! In my opinion it's the best of the challenger banks and I use them more than my standard bank now. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Banking Made Simple

I had been with the same big high street bank for 35 years and decided it was time to simplify and update how I bank so switched to Starting. I love the simplicity of the app and it's features. So happy I switched. A Starling Credit Card would be wonderful too :)) Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Fantastic app, easy to use, great customer service

Been with starling for a couple of years now, have not a bad word to say about them! The app is great and easy to navigate, the personalised saving spaces and round up options are great for budgeting towards an event/occasion and their live chat help line is always available. 100% recommend!
