Awesome

Does everything you want, what more could you need? Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Banking made easy

5
An easy to navigate but secure banking app. Communication is straightforward with Immediate response to queries. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Reliable, Easy and Simple

5
I've been with Starling for just short of a year, everything is simple to use and all on the one app. Opening the account was a doddle and I love the extra features like rounding up payments and sending payment requests. I've only had the need to contact them once for support via online chat and it was faultless Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Everything I need in a bank.

5
Very easy to operate the account and navigate the app. Have used it internationally. Feels safe as a bank not just travellers money card. Everything I need in a bank. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

It Works For Me

5
Opening an account was so easy, as was transfers to/from various currencies. The app makes it easy to keep on top of ones finances at any time. My only criticism is that it does take time for transfers to be completed (I think this may be due to the banking system and not directly attributable to Starling) Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best online bank

5
Started out two years ago only using it for holidays as a travel card but made the full migration into it being my full time bank last year because of layout and the way you can track payments. Already got 5 friends signed up to it Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Fantastic functionality

5
Can’t tell you how easy and convenient having a euro account next to a sterling account is. With a property and bills overseas having the two makes managing bills in euros a doddle. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best Bank and Best Banking App!!

5
Been with Starling for a year and a bit now and i must say i love the service and the ease of use and the information the app gives me. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Brilliant

5
Easy Safe and Quick to use for all banking needs Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

different currencies accounts

5
accounts in different currencies (e.g. GBP, EURO, USD...) is an ultimate winner for someone who retired from multinationals, like myself!!! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
