No paper, no calls, no fuss.....banking as it should be....instant, easy, quick, useable all over the world, low or no costs, innovative operation, THE bank for TODAYS global internet user but with all those old trusted facilities (like pay in at post office) if needed.

Really slick app with a great look and feel. Easy to use and transparent. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Starling is the future

I have nothing but great things to say about Starling Bank, I’ve been singing their praises to anyone and everyone who will listen (and some who didn’t want to listen). The account set up was super simple, the app is effortless and the customer service is incredibly efficient and a pleasure to access. Regular updates regarding available products and interest earned are well timed and never feel instrusive. I also have an account with a ‘traditional’ bank and I can honestly say that Starling Bank is my first choice, and am in the process of moving my main banking over to my Starling account. Whilst bells and whistles aren’t always the be all and end all of everything the packing and design used but Starling Bank just highlights the fact that they’ve put a lot of thought into every last detail. Starling Bank you are the future. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Modern banking ahead of everyone else

I joined First Direct when they were ahead of everyone else. Then they just became another bank. Starling brought something new, simple and a service ahead of everone else - fee free atm withdrawals abroad with mastercard exchange rates, simple yet secure app access with an interface modelled on what modern banking customers actually want, and instant transaction notifications. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Fenomonal Savings feature

Being able to ring fence money within your current account and attribute to certain goals is brilliant. My savings rate has gone through the roof which the smalles of effort. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Rapid opening. Easy to use

I opened an account as Starling were one of the very few banks who had a connector to Fitbit. I wanted to pay for coffee using my watch. The experience has been great and I have encouraged all my family to get an account. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Fantastic bank! Really happy with it.

I love the way you can use Post office facilities for free Cash withdrawals and deposits. Love the debit top-ups and the Goal savings pots. Heads and shoulders above the ‘M’ competition Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
