Excellent Service & App

Quick & easy, I needed to increase my transfer limit. It was all done & dusted in minutes with no fee! (my last back made me pay for CHAPS or send over a number of days). Very happy & love the app. I trust starling! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Fantastic internet bank

Starling is super easy to use and I have found it to have much better customer interaction than traditional banks. From instant spend alerts, ease of use using my card abroad, spending insights and other statistics that my other banks don't offer. The app is well designed and I like the UI. not had any issues after 2 years of being with Starling. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Just what I need

Starling bank is accessible and easy enough to navigate. Even though the bank is relatively new to the market, I feel my money is in safe hands. I haven't transferred my wages to come into this bank yet but I am seriously considering it. The app makes saving so much easier as I can see what I've saved and how much in each "space" too. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Started off well

Yes I have enjoyed transferring to starling - a few teething issues but the help lines have polite knowledgeable people who do their best to help you out Has a solid base to work off in the future Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Top rated bank

Everything is so simple and easy to navigate and use, it is what I need in this day and age, a bank that can keep up with my lifestyle. I love how it tells me instantly what i have spent money one, it makes it so easy to keep a check on my spending without looking up bank statements. The ease I can switch money into the savings and bank again is brilliant. I needed to contact customer service for a query, it was dealt with fast and efficiently. I LOVE this bank Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Brilliant

With the option to have savings located to individual items it’s the first time I’ve been properly been able to save normally I have savings boxes at home but with this I can see where I am an how much more I need to do The app is very easy to use and I like that you can move money around easily if things change Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great product!

This is such a simple, innovative and effective app. Makes money management a pleasure! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Leading the way

It says a lot when all the other banks that I’m with have been frantically adding the features that Starling has had from day 1. It’s a brilliant bank. Never had any issues with them and have recommended them to many friends and family. My only gripe is that the physical card marks very easily so looks quite dirty after a year in my wallet. App works fantastically. I feel that my money is secure and I love the instant push notifications when I spend money Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
