I love how i can organise my savings in different saving folders - from uni costs to rent to phone bill to year abroad, food etc etc . It's great to keep things organised and you can pay bills from each one. I like being able to label each spend with what it falls under e.g dining out or medical etc. Reviewed on: 29th March 2024

The only little issue is the limits are inflexible.

The only little issue is the limits are inflexible. Not more than £10,000 a day by card, not more than £2,500 a card transaction and it is a little hard to find that information. Reviewed on: 29th March 2024
Reply from Starling Bank Hi Tal, Thanks so much for your feedback. Each card has a limit of £10,000 per day, regardless of the underlying currency you are transacting in. This limit has a max of 50 transactions and includes all transactions across all accounts the card is linked to, including additional GBP and currency accounts. We hope this helps, but please contact our team via in-app chat under the help section, and they'll help answer any questions you have. Team Starling. Response date: 29th March 2024

Excellent from the very start

Really easy to open, really good app, really good product. A bank I didn't need to be bribed to use and kept despite being offered bribes to switch elsewhere. Reviewed on: 28th March 2024

Starling is the best!

I’ve had several bank accounts in my life and Starling is the best! My partner says it was made for me! I love the spaces as I like my money to be “allocated”! It’s easy to use . I love that I now get a fair rate of interest in my current account to! I just love everything about it and would highly recommend to anyone and often have! Reviewed on: 28th March 2024
