Good service, easy way to bank

Saves me a fortune in fees abroad. Can see at a glance what is in my account and spending alerts are great Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Get the teenagers signed up

5
From the very start when my card arrived in a beautiful high quality envelope I felt like Starling cared about my custom. The saving pots are a fantastic idea - a high tech version of my Granny’s jam jars labelled with all the various weekly bills. I’ve encouraged my teenager to also start saving and he uses his account for Applepay. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Friendly staff and did what I wanted it to do - be right in the heart of the Waterloo Battlefield.

I took out the account in 2019 and the ease and efficient way that communication between account holder and bank is so good in these days of less efficiency from others. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Amazing online bank

5
Such an easy bank account to set up and use. My friend recommended me, i then got a recommendation from my husband, then I recommended both my parents. It was so easy to use especially as we work shifts sending money to each other is a breeze with nearby facility and instant alert to spending, it took longer for us to talk about setting up a joint account than the 3 mins it actually took us as existing customers! Use the virtual card in apple wallet and quick delivery of the actual card for spending over £30, and shows what category i am spending money on. This year going to use the spaces facility to save money. I am yet to figure if they are going to allow online deposit of cheques like my other bank account does Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

This bank makes everything easy. It’s also made it easier to see where I’m spending my money and where i need to cut back. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

I have to say this is the best inter-banking I have used so far

5
I really love the interface and layout of the app, it's smooth and easier to get in to but my favourite thing is probably the spaces. My life has become so much easier to organise my money into different section. I have recommended it to 5 of my friends so far and they really like the app. They even use it as their main account then using big banks like nationwide. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
