An amazing bank!

5
I have previously banked with 4-5 different companies, and none of them compare to Starling. The customer support, the fluidity, and the overall ease of use are welcomed amongst a bunch of old fashioned, drawn out banks. Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

Starling makes it easy to manage your money, easier than any other bank. Instant notifications and transactions, spending insights and goals (my favourite). Best decision I ever made was to move to Starling. Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

21st Century Banking

Starling has made banking so much easier. It is user friendly, easy to set up and the ability to use the card abroad with no transaction fees is brilliant. My partner and I also have no need for a joint account right now thanks to their settle up function. One pays and then just splits the bill there and then on the app. Fantastic. Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

Banking made easy.

All you need is the app which is so easy to use. I get notifications every time money goes in or out of my account. Free spending abroad and insights into my spending. Use the post office to deposit cash. Its free banking, and even get interest on my account. Reviewed on: 6th November 2019
