Excellent

Excellent easy to use app, and very good costumer service Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great product

Living abroad I find accessing my UK bank account very easy with my Starting account. A must for everyone ☺️ Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Life changing money awareness

Not only does Starling enable you to manage your money in a way that's not possible with traditional banking, it brings you instant awareness on your spending and saving. And that feels great! Starling also offers you a calm, clear and intuitive user experience. To go with Starling is the best 'money awareness' decision I've ever made. I can't rate it enough! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

App issue

Only ever had one app issue which was sorted over the phone very quickly. Never had a banking issue would recommend this bank to family and friends. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Everything you need

Everything you need remotely, never had to contact customer service, self service is so easy and simple. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Easy, informative, helpful

The app is easy to use and navigate, gives you immediate information about payments and money received, and should you need assistance you can get it immediately via the Chat feature or for less urgent issues by email. Really pleased I switched. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Simple no nonsense banking

Used as a compliment to my FD current account for saving and spending when abroad, particularly like that I can set up "Spaces" for individual savings goals. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Changed the way I bank

Since opening a Starling account in 2020 I've found the whole experience of managing my money so much easier than with my previous banks. My partner and I have a joint, current and business account, all of which we've switched to Starling as it's been so good. The app interface is amazingly designed, and the way it's set up makes it easy to save and create pools of money, achieve financial goals and manage spending. Couldn't recommend more. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Moved from another bank.... No regrets

Would recommend Starling. So much better than previous bank that I could never get on to.... Good customer service on the times I've had to use it. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Easy banking

Everything is easy with Starling great customer service the bit I particularly like is when you spend money you are notified before you’ve left the shop Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
