Perfect service

5
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

Love Starling, recommended to my family

Such an easy and efficient app. Real time track of your spend, confirmed to your mobile at the time which is so reassuring. App is so easy to use, move money effortlessly to / from other accounts, and into Spaces on the app. I have recommended to family members and they are all loving it's easy functionality.

Best Digital Bank

5
Starling is a great bank, I have switched to them as my primary bank. The main benefit is the fact that everything can be handled easily over the app, without ever having to go to a branch and only occasionally phoning them. Reviewed on: 30th January 2021

Online banking perfected

5
As a 21st century online bank the team at Starling have thought of everything that could be needed in an online account. The app works perfectly. The setting up of my accounts was ease personified. At present I have never had to contact their Customer Services team as I have never had any issues. Have, and will, continue to recommend Starling to family & friends. Reviewed on: 30th January 2021
