Excellent Service Provider

5
Starling is a great bank, providing banking services far superior to major banks on the High Street in terms of services and products that are tailored to the customer/consumer needs. Also, the fact that you can run a euro account alongside your current account without having to have an extra card, and also free!, No other bank on the High Street offers this, which saves the customer money on fees and better exchange rates. This alone, Is why I moved to Starling Bank. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

Simple and Easy!

So easy to use, both in the UK and abroad. Very friendly and happy to help. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

Perfect bank

5
I have a current and two business accounts with starling and I love the simplicity but also the way it interstates with all my accounts and the little side accounts I can create to save for different events. I also use this feature to save deposits until they are used. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

Top modern day banking

5
Fantastic bank. Miles better than my experience with two big high street banks - wish I switched earlier. So much more convenient using the app - which is easy and reliable to use. I love the ability to pay in cash at a post office which is much better for me. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

Simple banking with great functionality!

5
I love the simplicity of the app and the ability to create ring-fenced sub accounts for all your saving goals. The instant notifications are super helpful as well to keep track of income / spending. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

Straight forward banking, as it should be

5
It's just brilliant. I can see the second I send or receive money. Super cool that I don't get charged to use my money when abroad - just a good and honest exchange rate. I love this bank! Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

Easy to use and reliable

5
Easy set up and great features withing bank account. Instant payments in and out. Hassle free access to banking app. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020

Most modern and easy to use bank out there!

5
When I first opened my account with Starling, the process is so simple and done in just a few steps, far much easy than your normal high street banks process. The app is always up to date and real time and just plain and simple to use for anyone! The notifications that are real time also is a great feature, letting you know when you spend, receive or when a bill has gone out! Definitely will recommend! I’ve signed up 3 other people because of how good starling is, I never done that with my previous bank! I could go on. Reviewed on: 5th January 2020
