Fantastic customer experience and so much simpler than traditional banks - opening an account in a few minutes, full transparency over my money, clear company guidelines and strategy. Very refreshing to be part of this journey! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Great service and products

I have used Starling as my out-and-about account for over 2 years, and in that time the product has become better and better. Although I have experienced no problems at all in that time, I have held back from switching all my banking to Starling. Why? I run three current accounts (to cleanly separate personal, household and motoring spending), but Starling only permits one personal current account per customer at the moment. When that changes, switching will be a no-brainer. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Not yet perfect but pretty damn good

Would like to see an app for MS Windows 10 so that I can keep account under review on my laptop as well as my phone. I like Starling's instant updates when I spend and the ease of using just about everything to do with having a Starling account. Just don't grow too fast and fall into the traps that other online banks have. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Good UI, reliable, reputable

Just hoping for a youth a/c & debit card now for younger teenagers… Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Easy and great features

I really like the instant notifications on transactions. I also like the spaces which is where you can save for various things separately from your main balance. And I like the payment request option so I can get paid easily by anyone who owes me money. Great experience so far. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
