Modern and Simple to Use

5
Easy to set up and a very practical account for everyday use that can also be used on our travels. Instant alerts for payments. I haven't been a customer for long but love how user friendly and easy to use it is. Much more ' human' than my traditional bank. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

A crisp, clean, modern way of banking

5
Having decided that I liked the idea of an online bank and having looked around for one, I settled on Starling. This decision was made after reading reviews and checking out the bank online. The facility has lived up to my expectations and the app is intuitive and easy to use, while keeping me up-to-date with my daily banking usage. The account was quick and easy to set up and the ability to create, have and use a bank account without the inconvenience of having to ‘go to a branch’ has been a big benefit. I would highly recommend anyone to consider using Starling Bank. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Easy and fun to use, plus makes it easy to save

5
The app is really easy to navigate, the card looks and works amazingly, plus the ‘rounding up’ feature makes it really easy to save money every day while barely noticing it! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Great Internet Bank

5
Starling Bank is a easy to use app, and a great way to track your experience. Easy and fast bank transfers with all other bank’s. Starling Bank gave me an overdraft of 500£ limit, after 3 weeks after I open an account at them and that surprise me. I can manage beter my experience every day and the interes ia very very low. I hope in the future they will gave me a loan too. I will recommend Starling Bank for who e ever ask me to open an account. Great job Starling Bank. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Their customer support is very quick to reply and as it is chat based I don't need to stay on hold forever waiting. I love that I can see how much I'm getting paid before it goes in and it's just easier to see what I'm spending where Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
