So easy and simple to use

Starling makes banking fun again! The app is so easy to use and the instant spending/income notifications make it easy to know if a transaction went through. Definitely recommended. Reviewed on: 20th March 2021

Love it

Have to say this is the easiest bank account I've ever had Reviewed on: 20th March 2021

Best bank ever

The fact that other banks are now copying Starling's model says it all. Reviewed on: 20th March 2021

Amazing

Amazing... everything I one place without the nonsense... Reviewed on: 20th March 2021

Amazingly simple banking!

Amazingly simple and easy to use and security checks are reassuring for banking. Easy to view and understand. Second to none. Can't believe i didn't find out about sooner. L.A Watson. Reviewed on: 20th March 2021

Simple and convenient

I love this account so easy to set up and manage. Never been able to save until now as it gives u the choice to do so! Reviewed on: 20th March 2021

Brilliant, highly recommend!

Absolutely love how easy the app is to use to transfer money, pay bills. I feel it is very secure which gives me a lot of reassurance when doing online purchases. Highly recommend! Reviewed on: 20th March 2021

Easy to manage my money

Very happy with my starling account. The process to set one up is simple and straightforward. The account features are useful and easy to manage. Spaces are especially useful to squirrel away some money for a rainy day or any other purpose. And the support team are friendly, to boot. Would definitely recommend. Reviewed on: 20th March 2021

Starling for currency transfers saves almost 2%.

Additional to my brilliant Starling account, I needed to make some Euro transfers. Starling not only opened me a Euro account (took all of 10 mins) but offer 'way better' exchange rates than NatWest, my business bank. Using Starling for £/€ transfers is saving almost 2%. Starling's Yousef was terrific on the phone. Reviewed on: 20th March 2021

Never had a single issue

Ive never had a single issue with Starling bank. Often times customer service is a big problem for me- for example, Barclays customer service is terrible- but with starling bank you dont even need to think about customer service because there’s never anything wrong with them! Even so, if their customer service is even half as good as the rest of the services they offer, then it will be the best by far! Reviewed on: 19th March 2021
