I’m really happy for joining starling bank, I can have a overview of what and where I spent my money. Even says the merchant where the money was spent. I love that! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Brilliant mobile only bank

I haven't ever had an issue with this bank and accessing it. I can't say the same with traditional banks. The fact that now has also a Euro account, it makes me easier to receive and send money back to my family. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

So easy

Transfer went well with no hitches. Well communicated process. Like the instant alerts when spending especially abroad and saving for a project which lays aside money that’s easily transferred back into the main account. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Modern banking

Everything you need in a bank but in a modern formatting. Makes saving and tracking spending so much easier. Would recommend to anyone! Was very happy to switch completely and leave my bank of 15 years for Starling. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
