I now save much better than before because: 1- it’s been made easy 2- it’s been made fun 3- it’s been uncomplicated 4- the interest is better than some savings accounts! Thank you Starling Bank for giving me a new and improved relationship with my money. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Everything I Didn't Know I Needed

Before Starling, I used about 5 different money apps to do everything I can do on my one Starling account. Coming from United States recently, it was so obvious that Starling was the bank for me and I recommend it to absolutely everyone. It tracks your spending and organizes it in categories that make sense and help tweak your budget. It gives you the option to save into multiple "spaces" at once and auto-saves for you with each purchase you make. I love the notifications I receive everytime a payment is made or money enters my account. I am able to quickly send money to friends who also have Starling, which is a lot because I recommended it to so many people. And the final plus is that the card is cute and the app is SO easy to use and very well designed, visually. Being an artist, those things matter to me and the aesthetic of Starling as a whole is visually pleasing and the functionality of it all does not let you down. Best bank and banking app ever.

Starling was recommended to me by a friend and what he explained was right every purchase recorded and lets me no on my phone instantly . And I can look back over the days and months to see where I've spent my money and a bonus for me is when I'm abroad I don't have to Cary much cash brilliant . Now I recommend starling to all my friends and family too . Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Modern bank for modern times

App shows purchases in detail with notifications on spending. Easy secure access and 24/7 UK customer service. Fast delivery of card and easy set up of account. Mastercard Debit great for overseas exchange rates and rarely any fees - compared to mainstream bank charges and fees this is massive savings when travelling. Love the logos of where you've spent money and the breakdown of your spending Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Excellent bank

I've had a current account with starling for a couple of years now. Everything from opening the account to spending money all over the world has been effortless. I had to contact their help centre through the app whilst abroad and they were great. Would highly recommend them to anyone. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Simply the best for 21st century banking!

These guys are doing all the right things with personal banking (I can’t review the business banking as I don't have one with them) The ease of use of the app is first rate, it looks professional and makes complete sense. I found the Monzo app to be too disjointed and don’t get me started on the high street bank’s app offerings - they are beyond useless! Well done Starling and keep up the good work!
