It just works

Fantastic bank. Just works. I’ve only had to reach out to support once in my 3 years as a customer and my query was answered (and resolved) in actual minutes. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great Bank

Wonderful. I have a current account with Starling Bank and I opened a business account aswell because is a great choice Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Simplicity is often the best way

The bank and their app is so easy to use. Full functionality plus you can view your card details on line which makes things so much easier when you don't have your purse to hand. I have full confidence in the bank and love it so much I have opened a Kite account for my daughter which gives her financial freedom (but not too much) under my watchful eye. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best online banking experience so far!!

I’ve trialled out using Starling to see how I spend my money. The instant messages when I receive or spend anything is great and the breakdown on the app is easy to read. I’ve just set up the kite account for my son just in time for his 7th birthday. He loves maths and this will help him to calculate what he saves and spends. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Quick, Convenient & Comprehensive

Transactions are handled at startling speed. App is intuitive and easy to use. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A simple solution to my personal banking needs

From day one, no issues at all. Navigating the site to manage my account is easy. I would recommend Starling Bank to everyone without hesitation. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
