A bank account that works for you not against you. UK based staff a bonus. Simple banking at its finest. I closed my other high street accounts I’d had for over 20 years to Starling as I just love the whole thing that is Starling. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Best bank around

Perfect for seeing where your money goes . No lengthy transaction delays . Love the real-time notifications Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

They lead others follow

5
You may see flash adverts from the so called big banks promoting their on line services, when Sterling had them in place 2 years ago. Now Sterling lead on ESG issues where the others dare not tread. They still back the oil guzzlers of this world and Sterling do not. Ethically sound Sterling leave the others well behind. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Easy to set up and use

5
We now use starling as our joint account, it really helps us to budget and save. It was easy to set up and switch over to. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
