Best bank ever!!

Great bank, fantastic app, see what you have in your account, spend, what savings you have put away in a seperate section. Spoke to customer services about my account and they were very polite and friendly. Banks being easy to talk to is a huge plus. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Best Bank

Such an easy to work with bank so much better than the boring old style ones Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Easiest for foreigners!

As a foreigner on a visa that renews ever couple of years, my experience with traditional big banks always involved lots of waiting and going back and forth with paperwork, and I was super pleased with how easy it was to apply for an account with Starling and get it approved and working within 24 hours. I love the level of control I have within the app and the no-fee arrangement when travelling abroad is really useful when visiting my family overseas (not to mention the card itself is a beautiful teal and the paper pocket it comes packaged in is a stationery-lover’s dream). Overall, a super happy customer and advocate of Starling! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Easy, hassle free banking

I’ve had problems with a 2 high street banks with their customer service not being the best. I joined starling and from day 1 it has been hassle free, I love the app, customer service is 5* I love the spaces where you can save/have goals for different things. Perfect everyday banking. Well done starling! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
