This is the most brilliant form of banking, this should be the way all banks should be. They should be looking at Starling as a role model for the future of online banking. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Since switching to Starling Bank everything has been so much easier! It's easy to set up, there's no hassle and the customer service is great. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

A great easy to use real bank account with great features

5
It couldn’t have been easier to set up the Starling account, and the features such as Savings Goals and ‘round-up’ add to the experience. I feel like I have more control and understanding of what and where my money is going and i’m saving more than before. The connected joint account we opened is just as fantastic. Can’t recommend highly enough ***** Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Just so easy...to switch then use

5
Switching was so easy and handled seamlessly. The account opening process itself was simplicity defined, including the 'sit on the couch next to your partner and open a joint account'...and my wife is no tech lover. In fact she said after a few days using and a couple of payments made...wow this is so easy to use. She likes the goal setting to put aside money too. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Brilliant

5
No charges just interest! I signed up for a starling card before I went on holiday. 4 people in my family already had one so recommended it to me. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Easy & fair
