Outstanding

5
Starling is outstanding in providing this new type of banking experience, entirely app based. Application, customer service, updates, app usability are the smoothest I’ve ever experienced and with something as stressful as banking that’s invaluable. Bravo Starling! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Best ever bank

5
So easy to set up and use. Select your own password in the set up. Instant message on phone with any spending giving details of where when and full amount. Easy to use abroad as well with again details shown in an instant update and with the excellent conversion rate in the app. There are no worries either about losing the card as it can be frozen in the app to stop all spending and unfrozen if you find it again. None of the difficulties I have encountered with other banks over a list card. I have been telling all my friends about it. So brilliant. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

An account that has got everything

5
I opened a current account with Starling, purely to use it as a travel card - as they don't charge you for using abroad and give you the best rate at the time of the purchase. I understand that you can use Sterling as a normal current account and can open different sections within as your savings. It's super easy to use and do. I like Starling that much that I recommended to my sister and boyfriend and have also opened a joint account up with my boyfriend so we can use this one as our travel card. We all have an account now. Would recommend Starling as an easy current account provider. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
