Simple Banking

It is so easy to bank with Startling. The app and online support are amazing. Simply the best! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great at Home and Abroad

5
I love how quick and easy everything to do on Starling is, from transferring money to viewing balances. The push notifications for spends/payments are so useful and being able to use the card abroad without being charged a fortune for every purchase makes travelling far less stressful.

Way ahead of the competition

5
Fair honest and easy banking. The app is easy to use and navigate; must be why the 'other' banks are starting to copy Starlings app features. Love the notifications, always lets you know about direct debits in advance preventing unnecessary use of your overdraught. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

So simple any one can use it!

5
Really simple to use, great card controls particularly like the saving tiles it’s like having lots of jam jars in the past ! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Incredibly user-friendly and sharp

5
Not only does Starling make banking easy, the app is beautifully designed. I especially love the Spaces feature (setting aside money has never been my strength, but this makes it easy- out of sight, out of mind!) and I love that I can view my debit card details in-app, so I'm not going through all my coat pockets to find my wallet every time I need that CVV number! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

100% Satisfied

5
Nothing I can say that isn’t positive, I had been with my previous bank nearly 20 years and had kept asking for a contactless card but never got it. Starling is easy to use and I feel secure in my banking. Thank you. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
