Love it love it love it. I travel quote frequently and this is what I need. Easy, fast, free. The only downside is £300 daily limit. The rest is great. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

No nonsense banking, the app is super easy to navigate and overspending isn’t a thing. Notifications to keep track of your spending is brilliant. The saving pots are great to budget and keep money separate Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

I opened a new account with Starling Bank in 2020. The application process was simple and straight forward. The phone apphas a clean, clear interface and the information the publish is always interesting. I also support their ethical policy statement. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great bank

Easy to use app from Starling. Utilising the "spaces" to save for individual goals has been so helpful. The safety net of not being able to spend directly from the "spaces" helps to keep money more secure from potential fraudsters. Easy to use and good customer service received when I have required support. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Reliable, easy to navigate

Was recommended by a friend! She will be a friend for life! This is fantastic and so easy to navigate. The prompts are amazing re upcoming payments/direct debits and generally TOP CLASS! Would highly recommend. To date have not had any ads or unwanted messages. Sure there is lots more to discover that will make my banking life easier. Excellent for the current times as bank branches close or have reduced hours. If you need an easy to manage and excellent bank - a definite option. Even for those (like me) reluctant to use online banking initially. You are safe with Starling. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Banking in 2021

Starling has been brilliant, the app works perfect. Funds appear in the account immediately after a transfer and some nice clever features available like splitting bills and putting money aside for savings. Would recommend Starling for anyone wanting a pain free bank account. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
