Simple perfection

The best bank I have been with, simple and easy to use app. Instant notifications so I always know when anything has been spent and when payments are due. Great customer service. Lots of benefits from being able to pay in cash at post office. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

Starling Bank is the best

Excellent banking service

Wonderful people very helpful people working in Starting Reviewed on: 1st February 2021

Changed the way I think about money

Starling makes money clear. If I buy something on my card - it comes off my balance. There’s only one balance shown , even though some payments might technically be pending. I love the spaces. I title them so I know what to save and how often. Every bit of my money is accounted for and whatever is left is my balance. If I’m saving for an occasion and need to spend I just remove it from the saving space and spend. It’s an absolutely amazing bank. Thanks! Reviewed on: 1st February 2021

The best bank

phone app is brilliant.

I had problems accessing my account while I was on holiday. Customer services were really helpful and put me on the right track to gain access. Reviewed on: 1st February 2021

The bank of the future!

Amazing bank! 10/10 would recommend! Reviewed on: 31st January 2021

Perfect service

I really like using Starling because the app is clear, quick, and easy to use. Their FAQs are relevant, and if you need to speak to someone you can do that too, without having to 'be on hold' on the phone. Their services are constantly improving, and their Connected card is an example of how they adapted to help their customers during the pandemic. I already recommend them to friends and family :-) Reviewed on: 31st January 2021

A very nimble, user friendly, and free bank.

What do you want? You want the ease of access without a compromise in security. Starling provides it free of charge. No strings. Reviewed on: 31st January 2021
