Just brilliant

Used it for a month in Japan. Beyond simple. App is fab, transferring money, swift, exchange rates, NIL. Off to Rome soon. Me, my chum and my Starling card. Reviewed on: 20th January 2020

Great bank to use

5
As it's an online/app bank only it's so easy to use and manage your money and there are lots of useful things in the app to use. The no fee usage aboard is also a great feature. Reviewed on: 20th January 2020

Unbelievable user experience

5
Me and my partner made the switch to Starling near the end of 2019. The user capability that the app provides us with is second to none, giving us great insights into our spending habits. The addition of their Spaces feature has made it easier than ever to hit our financial goals and save for things big and small! Would 100% reccomend this to anyone who is looking to freshen up their financial plan and get their finances in order! Reviewed on: 20th January 2020

The app is easy to use and understand. I like to know exactly how much I have in my account being a bit of a control freak and it does that instantaneously. As bank accounts go it's brill. Reviewed on: 20th January 2020

Exactly what I wanted, quick and simple

5
Been very impressed so far. App is very well designed with some great features. Has a simple intuitive interface, easy to track payments / spending plus none of the bloat that most bank apps have. Setting up an account took about 10 minutes; card came in the post a few days later. Transferring my current account to Starling was easy. Communication during this process was always clear and appropriate to the situation. Reviewed on: 20th January 2020

Fantastic app
