Just perfect

Banking with Starling is a wonderful experience. Smart, fast and efficient. Everything I need from a bank. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best move!

Simple online application, no paperwork, no phone calls...Everything is straight forward & uncomplicated. Instant notifications of any transactions so you know where your money is going. Making a transfer to and from other banks is instant. Best banking move I’ve made! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great, straight forward bank.

I have had my account with Starling for almost 2 years now. Best bank I have opened an account with. I travel a lot with my fiancé for work and the exchange rates Starling offer are by far the best! They also offer an online banking app which is so simple and straight forward to use. I would definitely recommend Starling Bank! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

In a word, brilliant...

Starling has changed banking. So much better than the traditional banks, due to the ease of use and the ability to use abroad without charges. Fantastic! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Very helpful

Everything is so easy with Starling. Glad I made the move. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

easy to use banking app - brilliant

I opened a Starling current account in August 2019 using their so-easy-to-use banking app. It was a doddle to get set up and use - simplicity at its best. The finger print login is fast but very secure. The best feature is the instant text message confirming the amount you have spent. This it is very reassuring and mostly eliminates the need for a printed card receipt. The breakdown of total spend is also useful. The interest on any balance, whilst small, also comes in useful and I really value the low charge and excellent exchange rate when using my Starling card abroad. Opening my Starling account was probably my best banking decision ever. Thank you Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Easy to use
