Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Easy to use bank with great travel credentials

5
Great bank - so easy to transfer money and have quick in depth looks at your current spending. I use as both my current account and joint account. Amazing for when travelling abroad as you don't get charged for using different currencies (within a normal holiday spending amount). 10/10 Reviewed on: 20th January 2020

Great bank to use

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

This account app does everything that I could wish and is in my view the future of banking

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
