Easy as ABC

Finding a bank like Starling was by far the smartest thing for me. Access when and where I need it. No quibble about where to find your money with a straight forward ‘at a glance’ view. Reviewed on: 1st March 2021

How banking should be

5
The Starling app is intuitive and glitch free, and customer service is excellent. The Spaces function has revolutionised how my family manages its money, making it easy to budget for planned expenditure and reducing our dependence on debt. Reviewed on: 28th February 2021

No nonsense banking

I've had no problems with Starling, their marketing reflects the product and they don't get in your way, or try and dazzle you with bells and whistles that you don't need. The app is functional and comes with some neat security features like if you make an online payment via debit card, the app will prompt you to confirm the details. Gives a nice peace of mind. One thing I appreciate about Starling is they don't constantly try and upsell you to any premium product, which I find intensely annoying from one of their competitors who nag you to pay them £15 a month for a silly metal card. Overall no complaints. Reviewed on: 27th February 2021
