Great Challenger Bank

Starling’s great—easy to set up, it’s got a great UI, there’s plenty of smart ways to control your money. And, as opposed to similar banks providing this kind of services, it’s not embarrassingly “millenial-friendly”. Would definitely recommend it and have done so already! Reviewed on: 31st January 2020

Starling is number 1

It's great for tracking spending and keeping me updated on my savings. It was very easy to set up and get going! Reviewed on: 31st January 2020

Hassle free banking

I opened this account after a recommendation from a friend. It has been very easy to open an account and my banking has been hassle free. Reviewed on: 31st January 2020

The best ever! Makes all other banks look awful! Reviewed on: 31st January 2020

Best British bank

The best bank I have ever tried! Reviewed on: 31st January 2020

Star performer

Efficient , fast and effective- just what I need Reviewed on: 31st January 2020

Amazing current account

The reason why I love this account is because it's fair. it's fair in the sense of its overdraft charges, it allows you to see instantly where you spend and last but not least they offer a euro account for free which you could spend from the same debit card. Reviewed on: 31st January 2020

Downside

There is no downside! No problem with cash withdrawals abroad! Reviewed on: 31st January 2020

Banking Made Simple

Starling Bank has completely changed the way I bank for the better. The ease of using the app saves a lot of time and enables me to view spending habits and keep track of my money accurately. The benefits of travelling abroad with my Starling Card are massive and are a welcome change compared to traditional 'high street banks'. The customer support has also been excellent when I've needed to use it. Overall Starling Bank has made banking so much easier and understandable. I always highly recommend the bank to friends and family. Reviewed on: 31st January 2020

Customer Focused

Interest on current account and no foreign transaction charges. Great online and mobile capacities that make it a pleasure to use. Reviewed on: 31st January 2020
