Great bank for online purchases

4
Great little bank to have for online purchases. The app is really intuitive and get prompt alerts to any spending/transactions. I like the direct debit reminders too. It is the little things that make the app. I can’t work out when you get paid interest or not. Not sure if I would use as my full time bank yet. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Starling has been a great money app for us. Knowing when and where I spent money is i valuable. Budgeting the month is a whole lot easier Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Smarter, better

And great response to queries. If I were a traditional current account provider I would be very scared of these guys. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Fantastic customer service and user experience

5
The app is really easy to use and gives insightful information on the front page without feeling overwhelmed. The spaces function really helps me with settling goals and feeling motivated to saving money. The settle-up feature makes splitting costs really easy. I used my card when travelling and the exchange rate when withdrawing cash was always very close and often much better than rates I could find elsewhere. Whenever I've had any issues or questions the instant message feature on the app has resolved everything quickly and simply. Couldn't recommend Starling Bank more. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
