They make banking fun

I’m a former head of strategic change at a high street bank, so I know how difficult it is to get banking right. Starling makes it look effortless. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

So simple

Everything about Starling Bank ticks all the boxes. The app is so simple to use, using Starling when travelling abroad couldn’t be easier and Customer Service Staff actually seem to want to help you and you don’t get put on hold for ages. Fantastic Bank. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Banking made easy

Our daughter opened a Starling Bank account as she was setting off for international travel and recommended we open an account too as the process was so easy. I did, and I'm so glad as I've been able to set savings goals in the 'spaces' which is inspiring me to save and keeping track is so easy. My husband was going overseas for work, so he set up an account too. Payments are quick and easy to set up. Overall the best bank I've used. No complications, just easy!

Fantastic bank

So far have had a great experience from this bank. Easy to set up. Transactions quick easy to understand. I have the ability to put money in to different sections allowing me to manage my money much easier Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

The best bank I have used

Starling bank is incredible. Their application process is super easy and can be done any time anywhere with their app. My account was opened quickly and ready to use not long after my application. The app is extremely well designed, its packed full of features but it has a simple, easy to use interface which gives you the information you need at a glance and then is really easy to use for banking transactions and more. I have only needed to contact starling customer service once but it was a fantastic experience. It was easy to get through and they were professional and friendly and helped my with my query quickly and it was sorted first time. I recommend this bank highly and to everyone! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

There are 0 cons to this bank

The quality of the app is what sold me to make the switch. However they just keep bringing out more and more features and reasons why to make that switch. Including recently a free post cheque deposit service! I had a couple time where I’ve decided to contact customer services and they are the best customer service team which I’ve contacted, fast replies, resolves the question almost instantly. I could t recommend starling enough 10/10 Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

A new way to bank

Love the app and the service. Introduction of round ups is brilliant I’ve saved so much money already. So easy to use and they take onboard customer feedback and introduce new features regularly. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Starling bank has everything I need to help me manage my money

Starling bank is easy to use. I get notifications every time I spend money and when I have a deposit. It also sends a message when a bill is going to be due for payment Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
