Clear and simple banking on an App

The Starling App is clean and easy to use, simple to find the features you need and use. The speed of transactions appearing is brilliant Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

Easy banking

I've had a very positive experience since joining Starling a few years ago. The app is easy to use, and allows for simple access to money management tools. I particularly like the 'Spaces' function, allowing me to segregate money and save up. Setup was easy and I've had fast customer support. Would happily recommend. Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

Simple to setup and use

It was so easy to setup and use Getting spending notifications really helps me manage my money Reviewed on: 18th January 2021

Quick and easy sign up

My absolute favourite thing about Starling is how easy it is to open an account. It takes just minutes to sign up. Then the app is great. My favourite feature is the savings Spaces - I've already set up four to save for holidays and other post-lockdown treats. I'm definitely going to do all my banking with them from now on Reviewed on: 24th November 2020

Best Bank I've ever used

Super easy and fast to set up, great interest paid, instant notification of payments to mobile (if you want) Intuitive to use, great tools to keep track, split areas and save. Reviewed on: 12th July 2020

Excellent in all respects

Fantastic app for banking. Lots of little extras that help you to manage your money and save. Simplicity personified! Reviewed on: 6th July 2020

Bank that actually meets customer requirements

Signing up is very straightforward. Website is clear and easy to use. Communication is always friendly and helpful. Reviewed on: 21st June 2020

Top Notch

Starling is all the bank you need for current, business and joint accounts. Their app is sensational. At a glance every detail you need about your finances is visible... from how much you’ve spent currently to what you spend on. You can easily transfer money between accounts, to any number of savings spaces you fancy, and so much more. Plus, the Marketplace allows you to connect with useful third party services seamlessly and inexpensively. However, my favourite is the sheer simplicity of getting in touch with Customer Services - through the app! Reviewed on: 11th June 2020

Great Bank

Everything just works! It is so nice to finally have a banking app on which I can do everything I need. I have been really impressed with the service I have received from these guys and have been a customer for over a year now. Reviewed on: 11th May 2020

Everything I ever could have asked for

I was initially looking for a bank that would enable me to get money out abroad without extra charges or hidden fees and this has provided exactly that I was initially looking for a bank that would enable me to get money out abroad without extra charges or hidden fees and starling has provided exactly that. In fact I enjoyed using the banks so much and found them so helpful whilst I was abroad that I continue to use them back in the UK. A really user-friendly and aesthetically pleasing app is a huge plus. Reviewed on: 2nd May 2020
