First Class Current Account

After being dissatisfied with my old banks and moving around for years, I finally found Starling! The capabilities, ease of use, spending categories and saving pots have revolutionised my spending! Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

It's so simple. Life needs this.

It's modern banking to suit how we bank now. Everything is quick, easy and there's no waiting for information about your money. Spaces is literally used like virtual pots of money for me. I allocate monthly spends like fuel and transfer as required. I'm a better person for starling bank AND I'm saving. First time in my life! Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

Perfect for Income Management

Best banking experience ever

Easy to set up and maintain, the pulse is always on point and helps me manage my finances as I need it. I've been locked out my account twice and 30 seconds with CS online, back in again and resolved. Starling is the future of banking - off to Germany and looking forward to using the no charges for Euros. Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

The best online bank!

The best online bank! A really nice app. Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

Easy and simple, but not basic

Starling offers an easily accessible way to manage every aspect of its banking in the app, as my first bank account, I found myself easily understanding most of it in no time, and the features of the app help greatly to keep track of personal spending, being able to see who was payed, and where, and having instant push notification for any transaction, making it very quickly possible to lock the card - also easily done in app, if there is a fraud. The transparency is also outstanding, with the CEO being truly present and shown to be really listening to the customer base with improvement over improvement. Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

Total change
