Brilliant bank

I love that you see your transactions immediately. I love the notifications when you spend/receive money. I also like the saving pots to help me ring fence cash for different things. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best bank ever

Changed over to this bank from TSB last year and it was the best decision ever. The mobile app has to be the best produced app for banking. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best bank account ever!

5
Love the simplicity and convenience of an all-in-one app for my banking. Easy to setup and edit regular transfer and standing orders for savings. Easy to check your regular payments such as direct debits etc... Both my wife and myself are using the app for current account and joint account, it's brilliant and effortless! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Innovative & transparent

5
Not only does Starling’s app-based current account have all the features one has come to expect from digital challenger banks (such as a great visual interface to keep track of spending, real-time updates and push notifications): It is also the fact it doesn’t charge for overseas transactions, pays interest and offers a Euro account to easily move funds between currencies that make it the ideal bank account for me! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best British Bank

5
Ever since joining this bank on a friend’s recommendation. I have not looked back since! Keeping track of my money has become so much easier and any overdraft charges I incur are simple and explained. Cannot recommend this bank highly enough. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
