Fantastic Account

Fantastic current account and the app makes the experience even better. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Breath of fresh air

Banking with Starling is so easy, it groups spending together so you can visualise where you are spending your money. The spaces function and round up makes saving easy, however it’s easy to move back if needed. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

An easier way to bank

Quick to set up, easy to use and makes money management simple and interesting - love how I can create different savings pots, love the round up feature and I enjoy the category breakdown of my spending! Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

The first time I have ever felt a level of joy from a bank

As soon as I joined Starling I haven’t looked back, I took pleasure in cancelling my “high street bank” accounts and utilising all of the Starling functions. Nothing is too difficult (like banking a cheque) and the breakdown of spending is second to none in being able to budget. The instant nature of notifications as well as notifying of due payments makes my life a million times more easy. All in all, this is a bank everyone should migrate to... PS - love the colour of the card too PPS - I would never have taken the time to write a review/vote for any bank in the past - this says it all Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Easy to set up, a breeze to use.

Great set up process, send payments anytime. At a glance stats and good saving options. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Best bank ever!

Really convenient helped me save a lot and excellent customer service. Thank you! Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Excellent Bank

Starling Bank got all the features I need especially for mobile banking Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Excellent

An excellent bank that kickstarted a revolution and scurry of innovation from the sleeping legacies, one to watch and one for legacy banks to be wary of. Reviewed on: 22nd March 2021

I love this bank!

So efficient, easy to use, I really like using the 'spaces' for sinking funds and easy to track spending under categories. Great user friendly app. Reviewed on: 22nd March 2021

Best banking app

I get responses in minutes, compared to my other banks that take hours/days. It’s by far the strongest app out there, decades ahead of other banks to be honest. Reviewed on: 22nd March 2021
