Great bank- everything you want in a bank!

Very impressed with this bank. Everything you could want in a bank. Easy to set up, great app, instant adjustments and notifications of your spending, analyses your spending, very quick setting up of "piggy bank" spending accounts, that Starling call "spaces" that you can goals for. So easy to transfer money between when needed. Notifications of direct debits that will be leaving you account- perfect tools for managing your money and being in control of your finances!

Excellent and complete service

from online to the app to customer service this is 100% the best bank service I’ve ever had. No waiting on the lines to speak to an advisor everything is fast and efficient would recommend to anyone looking at making a switch from a current bank Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Digital Banking just as it should be.

5
If Carling made banks it would be Starling Bank. This is exactly how digital banking should look and work. Staff are superb at resolving issues. Banking App flows exactly as it should. The only negatives are they’re not signed up to the PayM scheme. Whilst their own version is pretty good but PayM is the slick and easy way to make secure payments to friends or businesses without the risk of entering the wrong sort code or account number. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Amazing

The app is so easy to use, and any queries are answered by real people on the in app chat usually within minutes! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
