They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

5 star service ,with added socks! Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

Userfriendly account

Was wary of contact less payments and operating my account by phone. But am reassured by being able to see payments go through almost instantaneously and ability to control types of payment made on the cars. The ability to put money into separate pots and move them about easily has made an impact on my ability to budget and control spending. Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

Helps manage spending

I actually work for a high street bank & I now do all my banking through starling. The app is so easy to navigate whilst giving you a gray amount of detail. I’ve got more savings than ever before because I keep track of my money better. Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

Excellent app, excellent service

Starling’s service is really impressive. They make the established banks look really tired. Managing my current account in the app is so easy and customer services are a tap or two away if you need them. Excellent bank! Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

Setting up a new account was a daunting process after being a natwest customer for 14 years. Made the move due to starling banks app. I love the easy of setting up the account and the in depth details it provides. I live the rounding up aspect of purchases and the simplicity of this. It's euro account feature is also great when travelling abroad! Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

Reliable, beautiful, friendly service, great features, and still getting better! Love the flexibility of cash deposits at the Post Office, notifications, and plans for a credit card and for a desktop version. It's the future of banking! Reviewed on: 15th January 2020
