Simple and intuitive

A great platform, easy to use and some excellent features. Brilliant spending analysis and instant notifications and superb customer service. Pair all of this with easy paying in via Post Office and ongoing development, an absolute winner! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Banking as it should be.

Starling Bank is like a breath of fresh air. Gone are the clunky old procedures seen with more traditional banks. Starling offers a fully-featured online current account via an attractive, easy to navigate app. The clean interface is a joy to use and everything seems to work seamlessly. Perfect!

Excellent bank

Great App. Easy to use with real time updates. Perfect for abroad too with no charges. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Just the best of the mobile-only banks!!

I needed an easy, digital bank that allowed me to have a dual GBP/EUR accounts while being able to make wires to France. There you go, Starling! Very well organized, everything's explained in details and easy to access, the app is a delight as they already thought about all you might need in it, from account details, statements, wires, switching from one acccount to another with one click. changing easily your contact details... Wires from and to France are free of charges with the EUR account, and a minimal fare is asked between EUR and GBP, saving me lots of money. And the subscription took only 2 days + card delivery in another 4 days! Only thing missing: a web portal access that can ease the navigation and prevent any difficult times if you lost your phone. Coming soon, apparently! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Banking Nirvana

I’ve always wanted a bank that shows my true balance as soon as I’ve made a transaction. Never mind pending balances and all that. And I know Starling is processing pendings in the background but I don’t see it. It’s just applied up front keeping financial life simple. Banking Nirvana. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great way to spend abroad

Great exchange rate when using this account abroad, and your balance is always exactly up to date with instant notification of spending. Superb experience. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Banking and advice

I wish with every fibre of my being that I could influence everyone to bank with Starling. I love how my Account is handled- every time I spend I get a notification of what is left in my balance- how cool is that! I just wished Starling was around when I was young and working. They deserve all accolades available. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
