No-Nonsense

A customer since 2019, Starling have continued to innovate and improve their current account to provide a great all round banking experience - saving spaces, spending breakdown, good customer service and no more worries when travelling abroad. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Super Starling

5
I originally opened a Starling account as a second current account to the one I’d had for years. It soon became the account I use the most and made my original account seem dated. It’s ease of use and innovative features make this a well deserved award winning bank! Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Absolutely perfect.

Absolutely perfect. Everything I look for in a bank. Hassle free and the best thing is that I get monthly interest on my very small balance. Keep up the amazing work Starling and THANK YOU Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Intuitive and inspiring - future of banking

5
Seamless and minimalist design interface. The best and most innovative personal banking experience l've had (throughout trying several platforms). Taking the complex and boring yet integral and opportunistic world of finance and money management. And making this world intuitive, accessible and creative. The Starling experience is inspiring and refreshing, introducing options, structure and efficiency into personal banking through a simple app. I hope Starling continues to innovate into the tuture, l'd love to see investment options and products. On a small note: Monzo has an easy access high interest "pot" - I would like to see this in Starling's 'spaces' - I would be inclined to keep more money with Starling. I work for an investment management firm in Edinburgh and would also be interested in opportunities with Starling on that front. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Starling Bank review

Outstanding app and functions, security features are also excellent. Making payments and in particular having records of them is one of the most powerful features. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024
