easy to use online banking glad I sign up to starling bank Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best account ever

5
The Starling bank has obviously thought very carefully about what a customer wants and needs ands it delivers it in spades . Why other banks couldn’t have done this before I have no idea, but Starling appears to be the “ common sense” bank out there. I’ve tried it with relatively small amounts of money over the past year- but as I high income individual (£150K+) I will now move away from my traditional bank of thirty years and make this my main bank Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Ease of use

5
I opened a supplementary current account with a view monitor spending. Well the account opening process was so simple, the app is fantastic, I am now considering a full switch. This is big, they’re going to be big, I’m a very loyal first direct customer and I think they are going to be toppled off the top by these guys! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great app with up to the minute details.

The main thing I like about starling bank is how easy it is to know what I have left in my account at any time. My other current account always seems to be days out of date and I can never be sure that everything I have paid or is reflected in the remaining balance. This is not the case with starling and it makes it so much easier to manage my finances. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
