Easy online banking

Great bank with easy to use app. Intuitive format even for techno idiots. Super for using abroad as no unexpected charges Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Simple and beautiful

5
It gives me access quickly to my details with a simple but powerful UI. Any company that embraces digital and leads in those trends are who I want to bank with. Especially considering the old method of selecting a bank based off the best annual return is dead. Long live Starling! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great to have a euro account in the UK

4
Starling's USP for me is the fully SEPA compliant euro account for UK residents. It is scarcely unbelievable that it has taken the UK market so long to offer this as a mainstream part of its product offer - why are other UK banks so parochial? Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

True tech in your hand
