Making money management easy

5
Starling makes money management extremely easy. The app is easy to use and I also love the new web UI. I have only had to reach out to customer services a few time but every time my query was resolved quickly. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Excellent banking app

5
Recently switched and I'm simply stoned by the wonderful intuitive app. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Glad I switched

5
After being with a high street bank for ever and deciding that I wasn’t really benefitting from the ‘benefits’ and I reality weren’t benefits as I was paying for them by way of monthly fee and quite steeply in comparison with what was on offer, I made the switch - the best thing I did - service, app useability and saved me money. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Best choice I ever made

5
Switching to Starling Bank was the easiest decision I’ve ever made. Great account. Dead easy way to put money into my savings pot. Saving the pennies is great and the app is so easy to use. I’ve never been happier with an account. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Phenomenal Bank for Students

Great bank

5
Initially, I was a little wary of opening an account with no branches, however, having been with Starling for some time now, it ticks all the right boxes for what a great bank should be. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Faultless

True to itself

4
This fintech bank promised to revolutionise the banking sector and it certainly has done that. Gives more control of one's bank account than the established banks used to do Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Simple and Efficient

5
Starling bank is an app-only virtual bank that offers a current account and deposit accounts (offered by third parties). The app is very easy to navigate, clean and efficient. The customer service is excellent - queries are usually replied very quickly. The ability to change one's overdraft into a fixed-term loan is definitely a plus for people who need to use the overdraft over a period of time. Overall this is one of the best banking experirnce I have ever had. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Easy, efficient, no fuss!

5
Everything with Starling bank is easy and efficient. It’s app is easy to use, with cool features and does not have any of the “corporate stuffiness” of traditional banks. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
