Fantastic bank

I've already recommended to a few friends because of how good it is. Helps me save money easily and see exactly what I'm spending on. It's great at what it does Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best account for overseas spending

No foreign currency conversion fees and no overseas ATM fees make this the best card for using overseas. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Simple, quick and user friendly

5
Starling bank is user friendly and user friendly both for the users of the bank and to send and receive money to users that aren’t users of the bank. I like the goals section where I can separate off my money for different purposes and card controls that starling has. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Finely tuned money management

After banking with Barclays for 30 years. Starling bank has finally shown me how to manage my spending and save for my future. I can finally put the 7 jar system into place. And exciting experience putting me in control of my finances after 50 years of confusion with other banks! Finally a bank which puts my finger on the pulse! I love it. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Totally revolutionised my banking and given me control

5
I previously banked with a high street bank for more than 20 years. I have always found managing my money quite stressful and complicated. I saw an ad for starling that said ‘you’re not bad with money, you are with the wrong bank.’ I felt like that maybe applied to me so about three months ago I switched and it immediately made a difference. I can manage things so easily in the app and also I love how easy it is to connect and get help via chat if I have any questions. I can’t see myself going back to a high street bank, this is a totally different experience which offers me the quality of service I am more used to in 2020. I have told a lot of people about it!
