Banking shouldn’t be difficult - Starling Bank made opening and managing my finance clear and straight forward, no appointments needed, just download app, upload your documents and proof of ID, and you’re done. Also, you get to choose your PIN online, no need to wait for 2 separate envelopes and change PIN at atm. Love it! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Amazing banking app.

User friendly interface, immediate payment notifications. The banking app is so easy to use, account information is so straight forward, grouping types of spending to allow a better insight into where our money goes. It makes budgeting so much easier. Opening the account was a breeze, as was opening a joint account. Interest payments regularly which is great. Can't see myself ever leaving Starling. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
