Excellent

5
Really easy to set up and card arrived really quick. No hassles Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Brilliant

5
My first experience of a bank account that sends alerts straight away to show the payment. It is particularly useful when used abroad as it shows straight away the likely amount converted to be taken from the account. It is also very easy to send money abroad and the cost involved for this is much smaller than using a high street bank I love this bank account precisely for these reasons Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great bank

5
Starling are a great bank, the app is so useful and shows me immediately what I’ve been spending, making it super easy to keep track. They let customers know of any potential issues immediately, and are quick to resolve what few issues there are Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

So easy

Starling is very easy to use and manage just what you need in a bank. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Amazing Informative Data -AID

5
Amazing way to bank. It's the only one as a Non-Understander of tech I can actually use. The application for an account was easy and having the ability to see where you are spending money either daily or in what category (eating out way to much) I have recommended this to family. Starling bank is the ultimate banking AID Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best banking app

5
Love the way the app confirms that a debit or credit has gone through. Love the fact that starling has no charges to use abroad and currency rates are great. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Excellent!

5
App very easy to use, can set money aside in goals, works abroad and pays interest! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Already recommended to all family

5
Essentially everything that banking should be in 2020. App focused, speed, notifications, secure. Everything else is a waste of time and starling have never wasted any of mind. Epic company and product Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best switch I've made

5
I've even started to save not a lot but keep adding to it just by rounding up my money using the difference to save.... Great idea Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
