Perfect app

Amazing app, looks great, good functionality, would recommend to anyone! Reviewed on: 10th February 2019

No more overseas transaction charges

Excellent account if you travel a lot, best exchange rates and no fees, no limit to how many sub accounts you can set up to save. Reviewed on: 10th February 2019

So refreshing!

I'm so pleased I took the plunge and opened an account. It was scary for me, but so worth it. My worries were unfounded. I've had my eyes opened and I wouldn't go back now. The service has been brilliant. My queries have all been answered very quickly and with patience. The app is very easy to use - it's excellent. I love the instant notifications. I can't fault anything. I would definitely recommended it. I ended up opening a couple of "these new modern accounts" to see which I liked best. I choose Starling for the above reasons. Thank you Starling. Reviewed on: 10th February 2019

Beautiful, easy to use account

Couldn't ask for a more beautiful, easy to use account. Love the tech ❤️ Reviewed on: 10th February 2019

Always been good but getting better

Was a great banking experience from the start but they’ve gradually made it better and better. I like everything about it and have already recommended to several people who have joined Reviewed on: 10th February 2019

Smart, clear, simple

Love you the clear simplicity of this app and account. And the £300 of daily fee-free foreign withdrawals is unmatched. Reviewed on: 10th February 2019

Easy and honest

I needed a new bank account at short notice which would allow me to safely pay for things whilst in the USA and at the same time not charging me to do so. The time to set up the account was incredibly fast, I got my card through within 3 working days and the app was easy and informative with good security features. Their overdraft options are fairer than most banks and their methods for helping people save are welcomed in this uncertain and financial downturn most of us seem to be in at the moment. All of this equals a very happy customer. Reviewed on: 10th February 2019

Brilliantly simple

This bank is just brilliant - they make setting up payments, transferring money, setting up savings really easy. Setting up an account took 10 mins and the card arrived in a few days. The Ap is great and being able to categorise your spends is a great feature Reviewed on: 10th February 2019

Why isnt everyone banking with Starling

Great service, products and app. My favourite thing about Starling is the ethos. Other banks should be grateful to them for giving the reputation of the banking profession a boost. Also, female CEO and founder... say no more. Thanks for leading the way, Starling! Reviewed on: 10th February 2019
