Warm Fuzzy about Starling Bank

5
The Starling Bank app is the most user-friendly of any bank I’ve ever used. It’s structured in such a way that I know where my money is going 24/7 thanks to advance alerts before payments are due. I can make instant transfers to family etc And the Goals section encourages saving, with the option to keep loose change left over from transactions for a rainy day. Icing on the cake is female founder Anne Boden, as banking with a woman-led business gives me great satisfaction that I’m supporting equality and women in leadership whilst taking good care of my finances. Here’s to a secure future! Reviewed on: 15th November 2019

I've been with starling for almost 2 years, being with them has made my life a whole lot easy. Reviewed on: 15th November 2019

Savings are easy

5
Having used antiquated apps with banks before it was a real eye-opener when I saw my friend use his Starling Bank card and App. I was so interested to see that when he spend on the card the App instantly pinged to say the payment has gone through. From that point I had to have a current account with Starling as it made my previous banking App look so old. I also take my hat off to the account creation process - it is quick and very easy to complete. Reviewed on: 15th November 2019

An awesome easy to use experience

5
Great functionality on the app, easy intuitive to navigate Reviewed on: 15th November 2019

Brilliant technology

5
A nice clean user Interface makes keeping track of your finances easier and more enjoyable. Transferring money is easier & faster than traditional banking. One of my favourite features is that the sort code is not on the card but only on the app so if you were to lose your card no one could order anything online with your card.
