A fresh approach

I love the background and the use of technology to improve my banking. I think they're spot on with what UK banking has needed for a long time. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

All I need in a bank

5
It ticks all the boxes, ease of access to my money, the app is super easy to use. I am even rounding up to save for next year's car insurance. I love it. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Finally a great bank..!

When did a bank actually ever do what it says on the tin? Well in my opinion Starling does. My wife and I have individual accounts in GBP and Euros, plus a joint account. It’s too simple for words, everything always works, the fx rates are very competitive and we have full transparency on all our transactions and savings. Just brilliant!

A breath of fresh air to Banking

5
I'm astounded by how good Starling is. The process of opening the account in the app was simple. The app is fantastic. I can already tell they are going to be MUCH better than my previous/current business bank - HSBC, who by comparison are cumbersome. out of touch and in the Dark Ages !!! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

By far the best account than any other banks.

It's simply the best decision I've ever had with the Starling Bank account, best non fee for most of the travelling requirements, best currency exchange rate and best app. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

You simply cant beat this Bank.

Love the round up function and find that the opportunity to ring fence funds, and earn interest on the whole account has really helped me save Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Simple, easy, excellent

A superb experience from first signup to my current account transfer. A simple and easy app with all the functionality of a mainstream bank in the app plus everything else you’d normally have to call up or go into branch for are also available to do in the app instantly Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
