Convenience

Starling offers so much more than high street banks, especially during these times when it's not necessarily safe to visit high street banks. The convenience of scanning cheques for example! Seeing all your expenditure in each to read categories and their transfer service is immediate! I've had to wait days for transfers before, Starling are by far, hands down the best bank experience I've had so far. Thank you for making life simpler :) Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Very handy to see funds going into and some times out of account via your text

It is very handy to see funds going in and out of accounts when any where in the world and paying in local funds and at no cost to me. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

So glad I joined

Easy switch over. Super easy to use app. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

The bank of the future

Starling considers the customer at every level, from consuming to saving and even travelling. I'm very pleased with their efforts in their endeavours to provide customers with all the financial tools they may require to be successful and content in a fast paced society.

Soooo easy to use

Awesome for transferring money from £ to €. Also get a text message on every transaction straight away. Also on upcoming direct debits. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Instant Feedback

This bank is great for letting you know immediately you receive money into your account. And because you get instant information about credits and debits you’re always in charge of your finances. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Excellent service

A reliable and prompt Bank. Excellent customer service. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Great staff, & banking

I was with another bank for over 10 years and they constantly let me down, so when I saw the add for Starling, I jumped ship. Best thing I've ever done Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Perfect for money management phobes like me

Apart from the fact that the whole experience is distilled down into very intuitive app navigation, the absolute nail on the head function for is keeping all my money in one account and using "Spaces". I run my main balance to cover regular payments and day-to-day spends and move excess into different Spaces, knowing with a couple of swipes and taps I can top it up if I need to. So much better than using a separate "saving" account. It really has revolutionised my relationship with spending and saving. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

A great bank!

A really good bank - I love the app and things work so smoothly that I have not had the need to reach out to customer service yet! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
