Starling helps me to monitor my spending, being able to see at any time where I'm spending helps me stay on budget. I can easily monitor how much I spend on meals out, clothes, beauty products as well as groceries. I feel so much in control of my spending and saving. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Highly recommended

My switch to Starling was efficiently handled and without drama. Their security, based on a combination of fingerprint and audio video technology, is great and I particularly like their notifications - impending and actual transactions. Oh, and they give interest too! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

I was sick of staring at a clutter of needless figures everytime I opened my old banking app. I saw the Starling bank as on TV, downloaded the app, opened the ACC with a couple of pounds and navigated the app for 5 mins. Hooked! Next day I hit the switch tab and it's bye bye banking drudgery and hello to a bank acc that I enjoy using. It's so simple.....thank you...Andy Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
