Starling simplifies payments and expenditure overview.

5
It has never been easier to split a bill between friends, or send a payment request. Doing that only requires a few clicks on the app and the payee doesn't need to have a Starling account. The overview of payments is great, although there is still room for improvement. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

So Simple

5
Setting up my new bank account was far simpler than I thought, and then the migration from my old bank account was completely effortless. It was completed on time and I was kept notified when the process was initiated and when it was finished. I also received notifications to let me know that ALL of my standing orders had been migrated. I should have switched to Starling long ago! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Cannot fault it!

5
The perfect account for at home or abroad! I'm a frequent user and enjoy all aspects of the current account via the app. Having 'Goals' to set up is a real help and the ease at which I can transfer money or pay is effortless! Thinking of transferring my business account over also! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
