Shackles of a high street bank gone

Simplistic, innovative, I love the current account, savings section, overdraft and loan option. All from my phone, my wife is joining shortly so we can have a joint account for food shopping. Reviewed on: 28th January 2020

A bank for everyone

Banking services are suddenly available anytime and anywhere, with one condition - to have a smartphone. With lots of practical features and very simple to use, the current personal account is amazingly friendly. A true product of the Internet era....well done Starling Bank!

User friendly

Very easy to setup, quick to receive and activate, and a great product overall with many in-built features which other major banks are missing. Reviewed on: 28th January 2020

Superb bank. Life changing

The immediate notifications give a sense of security- as does the ability to freeze the card. The app is superb, you can see which categories you have spent on and use the goals to save - I also use them to budget by using goals like the envelope system. Reviewed on: 28th January 2020

Great bank

Great bank - user friendly, app is perfect, real-time notifications are useful, beats all incumbent banks Reviewed on: 28th January 2020

Straight forward online set up

Recommended by a friend, once I had set up I soon found out other people I knew had Starling Bank Accounts. The whole package is great for me, I have used my card abroad with no problems. Its also easy for paying in cheques, no more queuing at the post office! I have already recommended to friends. Reviewed on: 28th January 2020
