Love the app. I've only had to contact customer service once, and they were excellent. All easily managed via the in-app chat function too - no annoying automated telephone system to navigate. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

I recently opened a Starling current account with which I am very happy. Everything I want to do is very simple, quick and efficient. I like the modern style and information about spending and the flexibility when using abroad. I would definitely recommend Starting Bank. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

I was recommended starling by several friends who travel regularly. It was a breeze to set up. I’ve enjoyed the features so much I have recommended it to many others. Even my not super tech savvy Mum now has it and loves it! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Still Oustanding Value

5
A extremely good account with an easy to understand and navigate app to help you manage and control your money. Very useful whilst travelling abroad. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Brilliant Account

5
So easy! From starting my account to setting up saving spaces this account has taken away the time consuming, unnecessary and off putting steps the regular bank accounts have. I love the additional card feature that allows me to let someone else have limited access to my account for running errands for me. Being able to round up my spends has really helped me save faster. I genuinely can't find a fault with this account. Love it!! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
