Fantastic Usability

5
The bank's app allows me, as a student, to budget and manage my finances in a way which is impossible with my traditional bank account. The easy to use payments system also allows me to quickly settle up with my friends at the touch of a button. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Out with the old, in with Starling

5
Amazing! Such a fresh approach to banking. Signup super easy - and the app is incredible. So quick and easy to do anything. Support is outstanding, submit a message and a reply within minutes! Reviewed on: 6th February 2019

Fantastic

5
I switched from a well known bank after over 24 years of being a customer last month. I don’t regret switching to Starling at all the best thing is you get told how much you have spent straight away unlike the well known banks where it takes 48 - 72 hours to show up on your statement but with Starling its straight away and you earn interest on your money as well which is a little brucie bonus especially that I’m expecting my first child Reviewed on: 6th February 2019

By far the best mobile Banking

5
The best thing since slice bread Reviewed on: 6th February 2019

The best bank I've ever used!

5
I joined after seeing an advert on the tube for them and no fees! The app is second to none! No other banking app beats Starling and the customer service is amazing! I love how the app tells you instantly when you spend money and in UK pounds when you're abroad! You can deposit money at the post office for free compared to Monzo who charge you! The card is extremely cleverly made, I use the current account switching to switch from Co-op to Starling and now I use the card for everything! Would 100% recommend to anyone only takes a few minutes to apply! PS sending money to people is so easy with Settle Up sending money to people using Google or Apple Pay no sort codes or anything! Once me and my sister were on the train and I owed her £10 so we used the nearby function and held our phones next to eachother and it sent! Banks need to take a lot of hints from Starling!
