Really good on line bank account

5
I’ve been using starling for for over two years and originally used when abroad due to the great exchange rates and accessibility. However it’s now become a really good mainstream bank in my opinion. Reviewed on: 20th February 2021

Great banking -easy set up, ethical.

5
I found Starling Bank after searching for ethical banking. What I didn't necessarily expect was the best banking experience of my 50 years. After struggling with the standard banking of HSBC for a number of years, the ease of set up with Starling was so refreshing. The app works well on both my android and my partner's Iphone. Easy to navigate, see payments and organise finances. I cannot recommend more highly. Reviewed on: 20th February 2021

Neat, easy to operate, all you want

Starling is a well thought out complete banking experience with an easy, intuitive interface with updates that are remarkably responsive to client needs. Reviewed on: 20th February 2021

So simple yet brilliant

5
I have had a current account for around a year now and is definitely the best of the best, I've had accounts with the "big banks" and they do not come close. I love the spaces feature for saving, and when spending you have the option of rounding up to the nearest pound to go towards your saving. I believe getting notifications when purchasing is amazing and is a great security feature. It does everything I need and everything I want. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to keep a close eye on their spending. A very happy customer Reviewed on: 20th February 2021

friendly and ethical

5
We are very happy with the user friendly service and the fact that the bank is ethical and does not invest in non-ethical funds was an important part of our choice for changing bank Reviewed on: 20th February 2021

Brilliant bank account
