Registration was smooth. I love how everything works via the app and I feel instantly in the know of expenses and can approve them on my phone or tablet. Keep it up! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

New start, new bank.

After having a joint bank account with RBS for over thirty years I have ventured off on my own on both a banking and personal level. So going forward it’s out with the old and boring and in with the new and exciting. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

21st century banking

Starling came highly recommended to me by my son in law who know I was very frustrated at not being able to pay in a couple of rare cheques at either the high street bank no longer on my high street or the online bank who promised me 3 years ago they would soon have electronic cheque facilities without resorting to the Royal Mail. And what a brilliant recommendation. Easy to use, supreme customer communication and very straight forward. I finally have a bank I can trust. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great customer experience

Extremely easy to set up, use & makes it so much easier to save money for whatever reason. Wish I’d have changed bank sooner! My whole family is now with Starling. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Super easy to use and aesthetic

5
Super easy to use and aesthetic card and platform! I especially love the dual Pounds and Euro account, as well as the saving spaces to set money aside for various things instead of all lumped together into 1 single account. No issues so far! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
