Best Bank App that I have ever used

5
The features within the current account for Starling Bank are fantastic. They always seem to be ahead of the curve in terms of innovation and are continually improving and expanding the app. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Innovative & quick

5
Signed up to a current account and can only praise the speed & efficiency of their service. For an older user I found the App very simple to use and access unlike my other bank account when getting into the app was problamatical and time consuming. 10/10 from me! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Very convenient

5
Found Starling bank so easy to set up, my local RBS was one of the many closures and I was never a fan of their online service. Starling was recommended and I’m so glad I set it up. The online interface is clean and very easy to use and the mobile App notifies me within seconds when money has entered or left my account. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Perfect

5
I’ve loved having a Starling account since day 1, I recommended it to my husband who also has an account and we have a joint account. It makes keeping on top of your money so easy and the traditional banks are struggling to keep up with the ease of use. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

A so simple app to manage your account.

5
They are simply brilliant. The app is so easy to use. The account simple to set up. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Totally Excellent

5
I initially got this because I was going on holiday and wanted the free European transactions. I was so impressed that I have been using this account more and more. The app is fantastic, the customer service is great and I would thoroughly recommend this bank account. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

A bank account designed for modern people

5
Pleasantly surprised by the overall package - you should try it! Starting with the account opening process (simple, straightforward and definitely fit for 21st century) and ending with the debit card design, the simplicity of mobile app, the real-time status of your finances; everything is practical, easy to use and with that feeling of a bank boutique, designed specifically for you! One additional thing to mention - the convenience of dealing with card payments during the holiday in foreign currencies with excellent exchange rates and low fees (if any!). Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Really Impressed

5
I opened a Starling Personal Account as we were planning on doing more travelling in Europe but now use it as my main account. Setting up the account was straightforward and took just a few minutes. The features of the app are improving all the time and I find it really easy to move money between accounts and make payments. Getting a notification of any spend also provides reassurance. The facility to be able to use the card and atms abroad without incurring additional charges are a big bonus for me. Starling also keep customers informed of planned improvements too.

Just what I need

5
Very easy app. Reliable. Free for Europe!! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Brilliant Banking

5
The best thing I ever did was open my Starling bank account. So easy to use with the app and convenient, real-time transactions. Customer service is always first class and usually resolve any queries quickly and efficiently. I have now opened a business account with starling and didn't even consider going elsewhere. The account opening process took about 2 minutes - I had my account number immediately and my debit card the next day! Excellent service all round. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
