The best functionality of any bank by far

Banking with Starling is like upgrading from candles to electric light. Honestly, why wouldn’t you? Haven’t we all got enough in our plates just now? Do it. Switch today. You won’t regret it. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

So easy - so safe

It is the way your phone pings as every transaction is triggered. You feel really in control. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Handy Telephone Banking App

Easy to use, low hassle setting up, has the features that you actually want and use. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Convenient and simple

I was nervous about opening a internet based bank. However after doing my research as I was looking at going for a holiday abroad I choose Starling and haven’t looked back. Setting up and opening the account was simple and straightforward without the need to spend hours in an appointment. Card arrived promptly and it is nice to also earn interest on your current account even if rates have dropped very low at the moment. Third party additions are also a real bonus and being able to get so much all out of one app with options for investments, spending perks, pensions and so much more. Really recommended. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Made for the Modern Man!

A bank that's innovative, contemporary and exceeding all my expectations. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best ever

Very safe and easy to use. Masses of good information. Quick response with good information when help is needed Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Brilliant

Best bank I have ever been with, easy to understand & love how you can save in different spaces & set up rounding off your money when you buy items on your card. For online banking which at 1st I was very sceptical about I am so glad I took the leap & put my money & trust in them. Would highly recommend. 10 out of 10 without a doubt. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Very easy and flexible to open

Very easy and flexible to open and no charge to use the card abroad Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

An excellent bank

Always there, always ready to help Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Very impressed and makes other banks seems old fashioned now

I have been with Starling for a couple of years now and have been very impressed. I love the instantness of seeing payments and also seeing payments due tomorrow. It makes other banks seem very limited. So much so, I have now moved my joint account and business account across as well. Would love them to set up a credit card and savings so I can have everything under one roof! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
