Everything you need from a Bank

Having been a personal customer for 18 months, I have nothing but praise for Starling. Easy to access services; a brilliant and easy to use app; and professional throughout. So impressed that I have now opened a Business account with them... everything in one place. Banking is no longer a chore. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

My best banking experience

5
I changed from a well known high street Bank to Starling after many years I felt that change was needed. My friend suggested I tried Starling I was a little dubious and after a couple of weeks I changed banks by using switch facility. After several months I'm enjoying a fresh new look at my money the app is user friendly with a great way to view your money. Transferring money between friends is as simple as a tap of your phone. A great way to bank experience it soon. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Simple & elegant

Starling has a simple, modern and easy-to-use app with lots of useful features, like the ability to separate money into 'spaces' so that you can set money aside and control how much you spend. You can track where your money is going based on category (e.g. groceries, entertainment, bills etcetera) so that you don't overspend where you don't want to. Money can be deposited at a post office or by sending a cheque to Starling. A simple contactless debit card comes free with each account, as well as the ability to open a Euro account to hold Euros separately. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
