All Banks Will Look Like Starling in the Future

I've been with Starling bank for 3 years now. It's been quite simply an amazing experience and the mobile app is a real joy to use. Other banks are complete dinosaurs compared to Starling. This is the future of banking and the app is an example for all others to aspire to. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great when travelling abroad

I used my account when travelling in India and could access my cash in the local currency without fees wherever there was a cash machine. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great customer focused bank

Starling has been a joy to back with from day one. An easy application process, a great app, and so customer focused. If they handled client accounts, I'd move my business account to them tomorrow. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Simple, efficient and innovative

I opened starling account for the easy of using overseas with euro account, it is so good and efficient I use it all of the time now, simple and straightforward, amazing. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Works well

Have a personal and currency account, all works well and good staff there if needed. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great Bank

Keeps you informed. Easy to use app and I like the way it messages you every time a transaction is made. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Brilliant product!

Just so easy to set up and use and does exactly as it says on the tin Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Smart. Quick. Convenient.

Little left to be desired. The spaces make for easy allocation of funds. The breakdown - with quite decent autocategorisation - by purchase type (or by merchant) on a monthly basis is great. The app is feature rich, with little things like blocks on different types of purchases (should yo so wish it). Transaction are updated in near real time. Direct debits are easy to set up. Refunds are listed quickly. And now, there is internet access as well, and all statements can be downloaded to - or your finances managed from - your PC. Great stuff! Meets my expectations for a digital bank. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

No Brainer

At last a bank that keeps you up to date with your spending by the minute and with no bank charges. I should have moved here a long time ago. Next to change over will be my business account. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A bank that just works.

Starling has all the features I've always wanted in a bank account. I want to create an account instantly, Starling does that. I want it to work with my phone apps, Starling does that. I want to cancel a card instantly if I've lost it, Starling does that. I want to see what I have spent and what I have left, Starling does that. All this and much more is why I love using Starling.
