It is a reliable and simple to use system.

5
It is a reliable and simple to use system which suits me, a pensioner with pensions only as income. I have a feeling that the Starling system is both secure and is dependable. I particularly like the debit credit forecast warnings which allow me to plan and prevent me from becoming overdrawn. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026

Easy to manouvre account app and very safe.

5
Easy to manouvre account app. Always feel very safe accessing the app. Very good hints about staying safe online whilst banking and what they would never ask customers for, making me more alert. Customer service response time very quick and efficient, when needed. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026

Great Account

I really like how I can separate my money into different pots like groceries, petrol, savings etc. It helps me keep track of how much I’m spending and saving and just makes everything so much easier. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026

Saving pots

I love that I can easily create pots to save and pay bills from. My one downside is as a sole trader being made to have a business account when by law I don’t legally have to. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026

Great Bank

I have been with them since 2017. A great App. I really like the spaces so you can divide your income for bills and rent. If you have kids you can get an additional card for their allowance. You don’t get charges using the card abroad either. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2026
