Fast, functional and free.

5
Great app/bank. Customer service is very quick to reply. Everything always works just as you would want it to and notifications a re very fast. The fee free foreign exchange is a bonus - although I've yet to avail myself of that perk. Reviewed on: 9th January 2019

The best current account out there

5
I have had a Starling account for over a year and it is fantastic. The functionality is superior to that of the traditional banks and with services such as the market place, I have access to other financial products without going into a bank. I like the fact that there are no hidden fees and I can make an international payment with ease. Overall, it is just great that I can do everything I need within the app and I have the option to pay in cash at the post office if required. This is what Banking should be - easy to use, transparent and accessible! Reviewed on: 8th January 2019

I have been a Starling personal current account customer for a couple of years. I'll never use one of the big high street banks again. The high quality of product and service amazes me. The level of access to, control over and awareness of my money has changed my life for the better. Reviewed on: 7th January 2019
