Account opening a breeze, and fast, card management, account management just work. The team behind the app on mobile are clearly thinking from a user perspective, updates are providing new features and making existing ones simpler to use. Just awesome. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

The best current account I have had

5
From opening the bank to switching over my previous current account, the process was flawless. I love the app notifications when you receive money or spend money and making a payment to a friend is so easy compared to other banking apps. I also love the round up saving feature without having to use a third party application. Being able to put money away each month for unexpected bills is great and I don’t even notice it until I need it. This is exactly what I was looking for in a bank! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

I just can not find fault with this bank... The online app is the best I have ever used and I've used many over the last 15years. You won't go wrong choosing Starling. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

21st century bank with innovative ideas

I’ve been using Starling for a few months now and I must say, I applaud companies who don’t settle for less and who go for the extra mile to provide more to their customers. Innovation is what the high street banks lack and what Straling thrives in. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
