Excellent Banking

5
Starling beats all the Legacy Banks completely and it’s excellent overseas ! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

There for me when no-one else would.

4
When I have needed help they are quick to respond and explain to me in a good way Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

A 21st century way of banking

5
I tried a current account to see if it would be a way to teach my wife about online banking as our two existing banks are both clunky. What a revelation. Very straightforward and she’s taken to it like a duck to water. I’ve even created a Euro account which makes travelling more simple. Have closed one of our two bank accounts and considering moving the second one over too. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

So simple

Best online banking experience I have had the pleasure to use, not just in this country but in Europe too. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

First bank account, intend to stick

5
First bank. Mobile and web app provide a great overview on the state of the money in the account and the app has great tools for managing money. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

How Banking Should Be

5
Simple, intuitive. Banking that just makes sense Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Refreshing service

5
This bank actually does care about and tries to help it’s customers. Particularly love the “spaces” for when you want to put money by for or save for different items. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

So simple it works!

5
Super easy to set up & use. The app is flawless & it’s so easy to see what and where you have spent. Transferring money to other users of Starling as well as other banks works better than any other bank I have used previously. Can’t fault these guys. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Amazing. Helped me get an account with bad credit

5
Easy to you and activated in minutes Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Smooth and hassle-free

5
Have been using Starling for almost two years as my main account and it is great. I really like the fast and clear communication of when payments are made, and the general transparency on all of the fees (or lack of). Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
