Great UX

Super happy with Starling. Design is great, UX is great and CS as well Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Ideal for people on the go

I love the way I am instantly informed of all transactions, and the app is so easy to use compared to my other bank account! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Simple and effective

Set up a joint account for me and my partner. Starling helps us manage our finances so much better, I put this down to the brilliant app with the push notifications. The goals feature and the ‘round up’ the change are another great added feature - no complaints so far. 5/5 Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Brilliant

The way my spending is broken down in a visual way helps me understand my habits. Even better, rounding up my spending and saving the difference, without me realising, is a stroke of genius. Never before have I been so excited about checking my bank balance! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Ease of use is second to none

Great app, great customer service and brilliant in terms of ease of use Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Fantastic easy to use bank account

I manage the account through the iOS app, fantastic as it is quick facial log in, up to date by the minute and I know exactly how I am spending and how my balance looks. Not ready to make them my main bank having been with my existing bank for 30+ years but not discounting that possibility in the future. I cannot recommend Starling highly enough! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

The way forward!

Starling helps me to keep a very close eye on what I spend and who I spend it with. More often than not, I get notified of a transaction whilst I'm waiting for the till receipt to print - it's that quick Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Best app and its free to use

Nothing more nothing less then what you need, best banking app. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Excellent customer service and helpful staff Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
