Starling - a breath of fresh air

5
When other banks are inflexible and not interested in someone who wants an account without any of the nonsense, Starling Bank comes forward and embraces you, I wonder why I didn’t swap sooner. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Great for Using Abroad!

4
I always use my Starling account while travelling abroad, as there are 'no fees to pay'! Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Designed for the Customer

5
Well done. Starling is designed with the customer (of all abilities, and none!) in mind rather producing a package which we all have to conform to and assumes a degree of 'tech' knowledge. I've already recommended Starling to family and friends. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Great Experience

Easy to navigate and get used to. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Easy and convenient

5
I very much like the interface and the easy handling of the app. No complicated logins and everything is available on the phone. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Fresh modern Banking.

5
Starlings television advertisement encouraged me to look at the new style Banking. A challenge against the existing Big 4. All of what this new Bank has to say is true. It was superbly easy and quick to open. My existing current account was easily and quickly switched,including all monthly payment details. Learning how to navigate the different menus took a while but repeat usage made me aware about how easy the new layout is. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021
