Excellent bank

Starling is a great banking app, easy to use and access, and providing useful everyday information to help you review spending and budget. Notifications and alerts regarding expenditure and payments due help to ensure awareness and remaining in credit. Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

Joined Starling 6 months ago and it has changed my banking experience to a really positive one Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

Peace of mind

5
Starling just makes it easy for me to manage my money. The app works well, I'm confident in their security. I was worried about moving to an online only bank, but now I'd never go back. Plus the withdrawal abroad fees are excellent. Big fan. Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

Starling Bank is Awesome

5
I switched my 30yr high street bank for starling about 2 yrs ago now and have found it an excellent decision and i am happier than ever with my account ... pre covid 19 i travelled europe 3-4 times a year so the european banking transaction and money withdrawal costs (zero by the way ) was the biggest draw for me and the app is just so easy to use . Great Job Guys Keep It up Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

Took no time at all to open the account. Staff are very helpful and are there 24/7. Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

Initiative and user friendly

5
Constantly improving an already very easy to use and professional app. I am totally in control of my money with wonderful flexibility and options rather than the way round with other banks. Easy quick and helpful customer support when you need it. So refreshing it's a pleasure to keep on top of your finances. I have saved money , it's free and even get paid interest! Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

Well thought app

Not to cluttered with options, simple lay out at your finger tips. Able to set up payments quickly and have the added bonus to be able to log on and view information on my Mac for a deeper insight to my finances. Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

Starling Bank is not only reliable and trustworthy but it's innovations keep it well ahead of others. Reviewed on: 19th February 2021

Clear and easy

5
Clear, easy and straightforward. Love it. Seems to be doing banking for people and not just for profit. Love the auto notification as soon as any spending transaction is made. This really gives you heeps of confidence that your money is safe and you would notice immediately if there was a mistake or problem. I took up a Starling Account to allow me to access my money without transaction fees and foreign exchange charges when I started travelling in 2018. I visited over 20 countries across Asia and South America and had no trouble taking out all the different local currencies from ATMs and paying for bills and services. Love it, and based on my personal experience - I highly recommend this product and Company. Reviewed on: 19th February 2021
