Breath of fresh air!

5
It was quite a culture shock moving to a digital-only bank, but what a difference! Excellent service and fantastic functionality that makes you say “why didn’t my old bank do this?” Especially love the concept of “spaces” to organise pots of money (very useful when you want to save up for a goal or recurring bill), and the round-up function is a stroke of genius.

I find I am using my Starling card in preference to my other cards as I can see my transactions immediately. Therefore, extremely easy to keep track of expenditure. Also no charge in getting money abroad. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

The perfect banking service

Starling provides a service that just works. I have an app from a large bank as well, but it's far less user focused. Since I've been with Starling, I've felt much more in control. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
