Starling is so easy to set up and use. Within minutes I had an account and virtual card I could use. I didn't have to wait to the card to arrive in the post. The Account is feature rich with the ability to round my purchases and set up a savings account for a specific purpose. Customer service has been first class too.

Easy. Simple. No fuss

The starting account is so easy to work. Being app based I have everything to hand on my device. Also whenever a purchase is made I get an instant notification of the place and amount spent which increases confidence and safety resulting in me being in control. Along with this I can see a full breakdown in category’s to see what my spending habits are. Factor in the no fees and easy conversion when I am abroad with a fantastic exchange rate. What lore can you want from a bank. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
