Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

From loads of old accounts to Starling Spaces...

5
We had a number of old accounts in our other main bank. Rather than having to manage all the different payments in and out of the five accounts we switched it all to Starling using their Spaces facility to create 'sub accounts' whcih gave us a single view and easy management of our monthly finances.

Best bank around!

5
I love starling. I think the pots should be a non negotiable part of banking. Starling have also recently allowed their customers to earn some interest on those too which is even better! The app is also super easy to use and Starling have worked out how to give me everything I want without me even knowing it wanted it! Best bank around! Reviewed on: 14th March 2024

Switched from Monzo to Starling and have a positive experience with customer experience from day one confirming the reactiveness and attention to detail. Even had Starling team protect me from suspect fraud and other events on my account. I really appreciate the service level. Reviewed on: 14th March 2024

Easy online banking

Easy to use online banking - clear breakdown of spending & where. Linked saving pots help manage money & now get interest on funds in account. Helpful advice to manage day to day finances. Also very useful linked Euro account that is easy to transfer money to/from at a competitive rate. Reviewed on: 14th March 2024
