Great app and user friendly account

The app for Starling bank is easy to use and looks good, too. I like the rounding up feature for saving! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Convenient easy banking with perks

I didn't even have to leave my house to set up my account with Starling. Not only is it a bank but it is great and helping me save money with their 'round-ups' and 'spaces'(savings) making sure I save every penny. With Starling I don't have to download three different apps to make sure I'm spending my money right they have it all on their bank app. It's amazing and so easy, I would highly recommend. No regrets switching to Starling only extras⭐! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Great Banking Offering and Easy to Use App

The app is super simple and easy to navigate, while offering a good list of options and views. Banking with Starling is super simple, and setting up an account was easy. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Excellent app, features and service

I've been with Starling for about 6 months, having move from one of the large international banks whom I had been with for 20 years or so. I regret nothing! The app and its features are slick and intuitive, and make it very easy to manage and control my money. On the few times I have had to deal with them (mostly due to merchants having old manual processes that don't properly follow standards, such as DD reference lengths or mismatching etc.) the Customer Service team are prompt and very helpful. There are more features I'd love to see - advanced budgeting and forecasting for example, but as it stands it's easy enough to drop the months data into a spreadsheet for further analysis. The application and set up process was very easy, and the transfer of my balance and payments from my old bank was straightforward - the fear and hassle of moving banks can be forgotten! I already highly recommend Starling to friends and family - it would be nice if there was a referral bonus!! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

easy bank

Very easy to set up and a a very user friendly app. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Simply Brilliant and effective

I was skeptical originally but signed up to try this bank. Since then I have been blown away by their efficiency and responsiveness. Its a fantastic bank and works brilliantly without having any physial branches. The alerts on spending is a great touch and works instantly. I woudl recommend this bank to anyone who is aprofessional and wishes for an effercitve and efficient bank to facilitate their bsuiness or personal affairs. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
