Until I opened an account with Starling, I hadn't realised that it was actually possible to be enthusiastic about a bank, or about banking... Reviewed on: 4th November 2019

Just Superb!

An excellent example to the rest of the banking community. I used to be with Barclays, but Starling opened my eyes to what a consumer based should be. Reviewed on: 4th November 2019

I am so glad I switched my current account to Starling - it’s made banking so much easier Reviewed on: 4th November 2019

Finally like banking

I've never had any money and always hated every bank I've been with. I've been overcharged and kept away from the little cash I had. Until Starling. Now I save and spend with much greater freedom. Able to see exactly what I'm spending and add or take away from my savings at the touch of a button. I can't fault them and the change it's made to my relationship to my own cash has been brilliant Thanks. Reviewed on: 4th November 2019

Unsummable in a word

Brilliant Starling Band

So easy to open. Fantastic service and so easy to use. Puts all the old banks to shame!! Reviewed on: 4th November 2019

Quality app. Quality service.

Love Starling. They should issue a cheque book and Credit Card but the app is almost faultless and the customer support very good. I wish the Statements you can generate kept savings ‘Spaces’ and Current Account balance separate. But they’re small niggles. Reviewed on: 4th November 2019
