Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Good banking app

Easy to see transactions with app notifications, especially good for transactions in foreign currencies as it uses the mastercard exchange rate and shows you immediately how much you have spent in the currency and in pounds. Reviewed on: 26th January 2020

Loving Starling Bank so far

5
I haven't been with Starling very long, but I've opened a personal and bank account in the last few months. I love that you can sign up for accounts very easily, the app looks great, you can separate your money into savings pots even by rounding up purchases and hopefully they'll be doing their own cloud accounting software soon - all awesome! Reviewed on: 26th January 2020

Banking done right

5
Well designed app, mobile centric with easily accessible responsive support service in-app or via phone. It’s banking designed for the way the vast majority of people access and interact with both their money and information. Some smart tools around budgeting and savings round it all off. Importantly I’m now far more informed about my cash flow than with any previous bank I’ve used. Reviewed on: 26th January 2020

Banking but better

5
The most user friendly bank account I’ve used. Very interactive app with more and more features being added regularly. Reviewed on: 26th January 2020

A breath of fresh air

5
Starling does exactly what it promises. Low currency exchange fees, ability to natively use the debit card in Euros. Neat phone application. No fees in either business nor the personal account. Highly recommended. Reviewed on: 26th January 2020

Simple, Simple, Simple

5
Account setup was a breeze, the app is simple and easy to use with lots of options, the account itself is fantastic and the ability to move money around into individual pots is fantastic. Reviewed on: 26th January 2020

Convenience!

5
Everyday banking is made so much easier thanks to Starling, and transparency as a company gives me a lot of trust in their service. Reviewed on: 26th January 2020
