New kid on the block

Starling is obviously a new bank in banking terms but it throws all the old school banking ways out the window and asks what does the customer want. For me personally i use this account instead of a traditional bank as its transactions are quicker, update me by notification, advise me of up coming payments if my account won't have enough starling sends me a notification. This bank is far superior to any other bank i know off. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Easy/reliable

Never felt so great and sure about an online bank. Easy to use, fast and the opening is great, you can tell they make sure we are who we say we are. Also really great to use everywhere, even abroad without surprises. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Great No-Hassle Bank

I love my experience with Starling bank. Easy to manage from my mobile, I have my main current account and a joint account with my partner. Additional functionality is added regularly. It's really great for spending when abroad and not a "rip-off" like traditional bank accounts when spending in foreign currencies. I have recommended this to all my friends and family.

An incredible Bankazing experience

Applying for, being accepted for a new account has seemingly always been an unnecessarily drawn out affair... - not so with Starling Bank ! Simple banking transactions in and out of an account and managing funds has seemingly always been an unnecessarily tardy affair.... - not so with Starling Bank ! Customer service has seemingly always been unavailable or more suited to the operation of the bank rather than the customer... - not so with Starling Bank ! An all round great experience !

Amazing

I have been with starling bank since late 2017. The app is very user friendly and the real time in/out payments are help a lot. Having an app like this with all the features it offers is a no brainier. It offers everything a bank out does and more. The Starling bank customer service are amazingly friendly. I would very highly recommend Starling bank to everyone. Thank you Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
