Easy to use and setup. I just love it Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Very Happy Customer

So refreshing to have a plain, simple, enjoyable experience from setting up my account to the everyday use of my account, I have recommended Starling to lots of people and my partner has already opened an account. Thank you Starling! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Snappy and simple

Up to date technology that works in a super snappy app with real time transactions mean you know exactly where you are with your account balance. Separate spaces for putting money aside means it's kept out of the way, but close enough should you need it. Everything I needed from a bank and didn't realise I was missing until I switched to Starling. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Excellent for Travelling

Used on my travels to Costa Rica. It was really handy. Kept me informed of all my transactions, including the exchange rate I was getting. As it's a Mastercard could use it anywhere. Being able to 'lock' it in case it gets lost or copied is really good. No charges - fantastic. Have been travelling for years. Wish I'd had it before. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Excellent service easy to deal with

Everything about starling bank is so easy and convenient to use with no hidden extras Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Best Bank

Joined a few months ago all is going great Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Nice Fit!

From opening my account, requesting an overdraft, spending money, everything has been achieved quickly. I'm still finding more facilities to use, like rounding up my spending and diverting change to savings goal. So much easier to use than my old bank. Wish I'd known about it years before! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

A superb bank!

A superb bank with really easy setting up of an account and excellent follow up customer service. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
