Great customer service

Everything about them is just easy Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Awesome

After trying so many main street banks and feeling let down. I finally decided to try something different! And oh my god I have never looked back! Even convinced my wife to join me and we now have a joint account too! It was so easy and everything just feels so much safer! Will never go back to a main stream back.

21st century bank

I opened my account to separate my fledgling business and previously using only high street banks I have been so happy I chose Starling. It’s amazing how easy and simple all transactions can be using the app. It really feels as if this bank delivers what I need rather than me needing to fit in with how the bank want to run things. A really pleasant surprise Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Easy, quick and just right

I so enjoy my current account with Starling as it is easy to use, transactions (and notifications) are quick and for me and my wife it's just right. Thank you for this new way of banking. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Ditch the High street

If I had known about Starling bank earlier I would of ditched my high street bank sooner, absolutely 1st class professsional banking service thank you. Keep soaring Starling Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Excellent experience

This bank is amazing! The app has literally helped me with getting towards being debt free. The options to split the money into pots and the real-time spending which texts when money is spent means keeping a track of expenditure easy. It also alerts you to upcoming PayPal payments in advance, allowing you to move money to cover such payments. Other banks would just let you go overdrawn until you realise! Great app based bank! Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

A highly functional bank account

Starling offers a banking product that really helps. The app is easy and intuitive, the fee-free overseas usage is highly beneficial and the spaces function is an ideal budgeting tool. I highly recommend Starling to everyone. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

keep it simple

A few years back I would of thought a bank with no outlets could be a headache but the last three years has been a cinch to organise my finances/ credit someone else's or my own account or print off a years statements etc, it just all makes sense to 'keep it simple'. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021
