Starling bank is a joy to use.

I love the starling bank app and the way it works with joint accounts. The saving spaces to particularly easy to use and organise my money in a very intuitive, accessible way. I can easily see which merchants are paid or family members, how much and when. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

I am excited every time I get a notification of my spending

5
I love every thing about it, it’s instant, it’s brilliant, people in retail talk about it. As soon as you spend on your card it alerts you, last year I used it abroad in Croatia, no fees! It lets you categorise each transaction so you can see what your spending is on and it learns. There is NOTHING, I don’t like. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Quick, easy and simple

100% would recommend to others. The app is worlds ahead of competitors packed with useful feature and is really easy to use and manage. One particularly good feature is being able to set up multiple pots called spaces within the account. I was a bit cautious to begin with but that was mainly down to not having a local branch but can’t say I have missed it. Great service. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Let.the Mumuration become a shout!

We moved to Starling from a high street bank due to.some.concerns over security. Since day one it's felt like the move we should.have made a year before. With proper notifications o can track my money with ease. Customer service have been superb with any issue we've had and used plain English. If this is the fintech revolution, then I say viva la revolution!!! Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021
