A fantastic banking experience!

Having signed up to digital banking last year, I have been really pleased with Starlings banking experience. The contactless card was a lifesaver, having been refused one by my high street bank, it came into its own when I really needed it to manage my money. I also must mention that the design simply rocks! Love the blue colourways that really stands out from the rest. The app is very easy to navigate and I can easily track what I spend and can transfer my money very quickly and fuss free. Also very impressed with their cheque depositing feature. A brilliant idea not only in these times but going forward. Excellent all round!! Highly recommend this banking company to anyone thinking of switching to digital. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Life changer

Having been with a big high street bank I was frustrated at how inflexible it was in terms of managing my money. I heard about Starling through Martin Lewis’s website applied and it has totally transformed my financial life! I am now a money management pro because of the app! It’s easy to use and I love all of the features from the payments, saving spaces and the app cheque deposit . I tell everyone about Starling and those who have joined are just as happy as me!

Easy control, feel in charge.

I joined Starling just to manage my casual spends, separating these from household bills. I can save easily by transferring to different pots and choose to withdraw cash or pay by card, essential with covid precautions. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Simple

Easy set up, euro currency feature amazing. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Easy, Friendly Banking

I signed up for a Starling Current Account in August 2020 which turned out to be a very good move. Starling Bank gives me everything that I would expect from a conventional high street bank, but in a more friendly and convienient way. Security is first class and I cannot recommend Starling high enough. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
