Starling turned dread to delight

After over 40 years of being “rubbish with money”, the Starling current account has not only helped me get organised with my funds but made it enjoyable! I now love managing my money ! Starling has transformed every day banking from “dread” to “delight”. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Reviewed on: 7th March 2021

Easy to use and simple customer service Reviewed on: 6th March 2021

Great bank ethos and super app

5
Been banking with the same major high street bank for over 40 years and made the decision to give Starling a go. After just a couple of months I closed my other accounts and moved everything to Starling. The app is brilliant, easy, innovative, forward thinking.... Alerts are instant. It is a breathe of fresh air after years of corporate, generic letters, rigidity and banking with fat cats. I am so pleased I made the move. A modern, forward thinking, simple yet highly effective bank account. I really like the 'saving spaces' within my account.... A unique yet great idea Reviewed on: 6th March 2021

Very good online bank

Right from the initial setup process of my dual current and business account, I found the service really simple and easy to do. I love the banking app. You can easily set up saving pots and add notes to the transactions. I love Starling. Reviewed on: 6th March 2021

Moved from M&S

When M&S announced they were closing all current accounts there was only one bank we considered for our joint account. The same bank where I have a business and personal account - Starling of course! Reviewed on: 6th March 2021
