Quality & ease of use

Much better than traditional banks

Everything has been wonderful. It's so easy to manage everything through the app. As a frequent traveller, pre-covid, they're much better for me than a traditional bank. Reviewed on: 28th January 2021

All I need with extra surprises!

I love the simple design, very easy to navigate. Notifications go through within 1 second! Reviewed on: 28th January 2021

Great customer service

Starling is a refreshing bank. From great customer service to no overseas charges to transparent communications. It's the first bank that I have ever trusted and I've been a very happy customer since Day 1. Reviewed on: 28th January 2021

Excellent Bank

Customer-friendly, convenient and easy to use app. Fabulous bank Reviewed on: 28th January 2021

Easy Overseasy

I always use my Staling card when I am abroad. It’s accepted everywhere - no need to carry wads of currency, a good exchange rate and peace of mind should it be lost as the account can quickly be frozen from any smartphone. I can also top up my account in a couple of clicks. It’s changed my travel experience!! Reviewed on: 28th January 2021

So easy

Simple, straightforward, well thought out. Starling does what it should - it makes banking easy. Reviewed on: 28th January 2021

Easy online banking

I love Starling Bank! I like the fact of being able to move money to family abroad & know what the rate is, depositing cheques via app, it’s just easy. Love love love Starling. Thank you for making banking easy. Reviewed on: 28th January 2021

Starling - a new exciting way to bank

I had been with my previous bank since I was 14 years old. My partner moved to Starling when they first started and I followed as I was so impressed with their service. I continue to be with their innovative ideas Reviewed on: 28th January 2021

Best digital banking

Starting are a brilliant Bank... their customer service is 24/7 and they resolve your issues within the app or on a call! I particularly like the in app approval for any large card payments I make to prevent fraud! I also use business banking which is great also! Reviewed on: 27th January 2021
