Best Banking App

5
The app just makes banking easy and stress free. It should have been invented years ago, I finally feel on top of my money because I can check it easily and budget. Also the saving pot for rounding up money and saving it away has been a huge help, I've saved loads. AND I have now have a joint account with my boyfriend for household bits and rent, and it's so easy to pay rent each month, it's just made my life that little bit better. Chuffed.

The best bank in the UK

Convinced me that smartphone banking worked

5
My Starling experience has been seamless from the beginning. Opening the account was simple, the App works well, responses are fast. Navigating the App was a bit of a learning curve ( I am 72 years of age) , but nothing too difficult. Following my personal current account experience, I've also opened an account for the small company I'm involved with. Very impressed. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great Bank!

5
switched from high st. bank - never looked back - starling is fantastic, used abroad, Jordan and Baltic States, direct debits, standing orders, transfers in and out, paying in cheques by photo is fantastic and avoids taking it to another bank branch. Cash in via Post Office is perfect1 Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

The future of banking

5
Simple to use, full of useful info, secure and transparent ! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Brilliant banking for the person on the go - or stuck at home !

5
The easy to use app, and now the computer option means I can keep a close eye on my finances. It updates instantly and advises me of transactions. It also analyses my spend, and on top of that when I go abroad (eventually !) it enables me to get foreign currency without the excessive charges that other accounts have. I highly recommend this bank and am extremely pleased I moved to it when I did ! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Simply the best bank
