Great service

How banking should be..

The app is intuitive and easy to use. Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

Easy to set up new account

5
I decided to leave my old traditional bank after 35 years as during a difficult period in my life they were less than helpful. Setting up a new account with Starling was so easy being able to do everything online during the first Covid lockdown took so much stress off me. They arranged for the transfer from my old account of all direct debits etc and kept me informed every step of the way. I was so impressed with everything that I recommend them to a friend. Nice and simple bank account and love the fact you’re informed every time a transaction takes place. Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

A bank like no other.

5
I was always sceptical of online banking but the ease of use with which I opened my Starling account put aside any fears or doubts. The layout of the app is well done with simple icons and great features for saving up for that special occasion. Plus the competitive interest rate means I also make more money than with a high street bank. Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

Great bank account with great features.

5
I love this account because the app is so easy to use and I can keep an eye on my spending easily, but the main reason I opened a Starling account was for the fee free cash withdrawal abroad feature. Once Covid is over, I hope to use this feature again! Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

The bank suits my purpose.
