The best banking experience - period.

I hated traditional banks, so slow... so annoying yet Starling has made me become a Fintech NERD! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Friendly, efficient and great app

Loved moving to Starling. App is so user friendly and the spending insight have made me a much more responsible consumer. Whenever I’ve had an issue, the customer service team have been great in getting it sorted ASAP. Thanks Anne & Team Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great bank!

I switched from First Direct and wouldn't go back Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Brilliant bank for foreign travel

This is the second year I've gone travelling with my Starling card. Withdrawals are easy from any ATM, paying for goods and services is a doddle. I love the fact that the card can be locked so if it gets lost no'one can use it. All transactions are immediately notified via my smartphone so it's really easy to kee track of expenditure. Best of all..... No fees and brilliant customer service. Thank you Starling, long may you fly. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great all round

With instant spend alerts on phone and watch, I feel safe using my Card abroad. Currency exchange is at a fair rate with no commission charges, so that’s another great reason for using abroad. I love how easy it is to see my balance and spend, and to transfer cash between accounts. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Easy to use

The starling bank card is fantastic to take abroad. Very easy to use and no conversion charges when using in other countries. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best Bank

It's the first bank that seems to be truly 'modern'. The app is incredibly intuitive and easy to use not to mention the round up feature and 'spaces' feature make put money aside for little projects effortless. I only moved to Starling because of the free foreign transactions (I travel a lot with work) but I have found them to be so much better than my previous high street bank that I can't believe it took me so long to change! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great banking done well

Easy to apply, prompt reply’s, straightforward app, easy to monitor money even whilst abroad. Thank you Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Starling Bank are epic!

Swapped to Starling Bank from my old bank because I wanted to manage my money better. Not only did I get my wish but I got a whole new way of banking. Being disabled is hard enough without having to go to physical bank so Starling Bank is an all round solution for me. Plus they care about their customers and their Twitter feed cheers me up as well as being informative. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
