Everything you need for your money

Sign up is effortless, quick and effective. The starling app understands you and your banking. It is intuitive and efficient. All the transaction information is excellent. Gives confidence and worked in the 20 + countries we have visited in the last two years. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Quick to setup, easy to use and very secure

Setting up the account was very easy and convenient - all was done electronically. The security measure where a personal video was recorded by the bank app is an excellent security feature. Strongly recommended to anyone. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Love it

Great bank, accounts easy to open and easy to use. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Amazing, revolutionary banking for modern life

Amazing company, mostly automated but with polite and helpful people when I've needed to ask unusual questions etc. Simple things, like alerts the day before a payment is due when you have a low balance, not allowing you to build up charges if you accidentally bounce a direct debit, a flawless app, amazing joint accounts, business accounts that seamlessly fit into the app. Post office payments, ah I could go on forever with little things that make Starling the best bank i have ever dealt with - by a long way. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020
