Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Highly recommended

Within days of opening my account with Starling, I recommended it to four friends, and continue to do so. Easiest account ever to open, but still with the service, security and reliability needed. Put simply, love it! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

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

Brilliant

Quick and easy to use. Everything I could ask for 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
