Loving the money management facility

4
I think this is a great option for people that want to keep tighter control on their finances. The instant notifications is one of the main features that I love because it helps to give me piece of mind around the security of my account. In the future I would love to see a rewards based option int he account (cash back, points, vouchers etc) as a bigger incentive to use the account. I would also like to see a credit card emerge from the bank too! Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Seamless and agile bank

5
Great experience so far since I moved from my previous traditional bank and choosing between the challenger banks where Monzo was chosen second to Starling and I am happy with my decision so far. Expecting a lot to come in the pipeline in terms of Financial products to be offered. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Customers First- Low Effort & Speedy Transactions

5
I moved to Starling about a year ago. I was nervous about moving from one of the more mainstream banks, but it was the best move I have ever made with finances! The app is great, notifications instantly every time I spend or receive money! No waiting for days for contactless payments to come out like my old bank. Lodging a cheque is fab, no trips anywhere - just took a photo of it in the app! Love the spaces to use for saving goals and putting money aside so I don’t spend it! The we green debit card is so stylish too. Can’t recommend Starling Enough! ⭐️ Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021
