Fresh new feel on banking

Starling Bank creates a modern day banking experience that feels personal, easy to manage and excited about managing your finances. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Refreshing banking.

Everything is so simple and straightforward and they are coming up with novel ideas, paying off overdraft budgeting for example. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

How modern banking should be

So easy to set up without the need to visit a branch. I can't believe that an app only bank works so well. 24/7 support via webchat feels very personal and that the bank cares for its customers. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Easiest and best account on the market

Starling curren accounts not only pay you monthly interest on your balance, but also provide real time updates of card transactions and online purchases, helping to quickly identify any fraudulent activity. Starling also notifies you once your balance drops below a certain threshold. Furthermore, it takes, at most, 3 minutes to set up an account, and 5 days to receive your card. Easily the best bank I've ever been with, with 24hr customer service via live chat or telephone. Have recommended them to friends which have also opened accounts! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Best bank experience ever

I've used other banks, even online ones. But this is the easiest, sleekest and most comfortable one to use. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Just all round great

Everything is so easy and well laid out Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

No hassle banking.

Easy to apply for account over phone, took minutes. Receive notifications for all payments as soon as they happen. 24 hour live phone line. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Easy to use would recommend

So easy to use very modern looking app love how I can customise my savings so I don’t forget what I’m working towards also lets me save with realising by rounding up any payments I make definitely would recommend Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Best bank period

Banking as it should be

I’ve a personal and now a business bank account too. So easy to use. Awesome customer service. Always helpful, friendly and quick to answer any questions I have had. Savings are easy to set up. Payments are fast, effective and easy to use. Plus no abroad fees!!! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
