Absolutely the most painless banking experience

5
After a lifetime of begging & pleading high street banks to provide a service (any service) that I need there and then, I now have a little app on my little phone that does it all - and doesn't talk down to me, or use up selling as a solution Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Starling is so simple and wonderful! It's never been easier to monitor my funds, transfer money and view my outgoing/incomings. The app works so smoothly and efficiently, I rave about it all the time! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

All I need from the bank

5
Starling offers me everything I wanted from the bank. Their app is very simple, with a nice layout and colours. It doesn't look archaic and it's not as slow as High Street banks. Also, signing in doesn't give me a headache because I forgot that one number in one of the 4 passwords they ask me to remember. Their support is also top notch! Love it Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Safe and convenient

Opened my account this year for travel and day to day spending. Really handy being able to check my spend each month under different heading. The request payment function really handy if people owe me money. Extra card for food shopping has been brilliant in the pandemic. My daughter uses it for my food shopping so I can stay home.
