Update information

I like the Starling app. Any cash deposit is immediately sent to my phone so I can keep an eye on my balance and transactions Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Excellent user friendly bank

I joined on a whim looking for something different as I was fed up of ordinary banks. The joining process was super quick and easy. I love the instant alerts on my phone and have used it abroad many times without any issues. I’ve recommended them to three friends who have all joined too. Very pleased and so glad I joined Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Simple and efficient

Starling Bank was easy to apply for, and their response time was excellent. I love the app. Makes keeping an eye on your spending easy peasy. I also like the goals feature that allows me to have separate savings goals that I can keep an eye on. Also love the spare change saving goal, it builds up quickly without me even noticing, and, unlike actual coins, my kids can't steal it. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Best online bank

I transfer my account through the Switch Guarantee from a brick and mortar bank and Stirling were great in getting all done without a hitch. I appreciate the great features of notification on transaction use and future notification. At this point, Stirling is my main bank account. I receive my wages through the account. I wish Stirling started ages ago. I won't be looking back. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Backing With A Difference

Wow. I've been with quite a few before. By far Starling is the best. From the instant notifications to the great ready to use app. Their customer service although I've not really needed it has been great. I've already signed up 4 people to Starling. They're a bit more grown up than Monzo which I prefer. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

The useful and easier account

After use others traditional banks, I'm really happy to be part of this great Bank, easy to manage your accounts by the app and all in your hands whenever you want, the costumer service really helpful and professional... but very close by at the same time! Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Great bank

Fantastic service, keeps me updates about my spending Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Brilliantly realised

I can do everything I want to do with my Starling account quickly, easily, and for free. Free foreign spending is the biggest plus, but I also love the real-time notifications of spending, super-simple payments straight from my phone, and the spending analysis functionality. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

The Best Bank There Is! Full stop!

Simple, no-nonsense banking that works brilliantly due to no rip-off fees at all, most reassuringly. The app allows you to conduct all your business in an easy way and the whole process just works without any issue. Should you experience any problem, the 24-hour online chat reassures, further reinforcing Starling's banking strength. Thank you, Starling! I'm very much forward to seeing further additions and improvements over frustrating traditional banking. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Absolutely brilliant

Such an easy way to set a bank account, security settings are high which gives you the peace of mind, all within the comfort of your own home too! No queues, no appointments. Easy to navigate on the app too and when I found myself with a difficulty abroad, staff was quick to respond and quick to deal with my banking query. Also opened a joint account with my boyfriend which was super easy as well. Much better than a high street bank!! Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
