Banking at my finger tips

I no longer have to log in to a 1990's designed website to manage my finances as the Starling app on my mobile has everything I need. If I need support I have it with the in app chat within seconds, if I need to transfer money, boom its done. And having notifications pop up when money enters or leaves my account is such a huge comfort factor in these times when fraud can happen to anyone at any time. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Great Banking

My wife and I have set up an account recently and are really impressed . So easy to use the app . We aren't that tech savey being in our late 50s and earley 60s but Starling make it so easy to navigate the app. You bank is attractive to all age groups which I believe will be important for the future. Keep up the good work. Thanks Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

The Bank of the Future

The future is now and this is the bank. From a brilliant digital focused UX; to monthly Murmurs to keep you upto date the bank focuses on you as a customer as a person. Where most high street banks have a gritty legacy system approach where mobile banking feels like an afterthought to allow them to compete with the new banks. Starling is based and focused around the app the heart of the experience. What makes Starling is the community and its focus on the community in a time where we've been ever disconnected starling has focused and worked with the community to bring in features to support people and keep the connected constantly asking for user feedback to improve and implement features which make a difference. The only downside is once you open a Starling account you're disappointed in your standard high street bank and become frustrated with their klunky apps and way of doing things. Thank you Starling :) Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
