A breath if fresh air!

The banking ststem needed a little encouragement to wake up and move on with the times and starling has been a wake up call to all! Reviewed on: 22nd December 2018

Easy & Accessable

Really easy to set up and the App is totally accessable - I've got all my mates to sign up and my old mum! Reviewed on: 21st December 2018

Excellent accessible service

This company has changed how I bank. The whole process is easy, from setup to customer service, with an excellent app that does everything I used to use three apps for. Easy and quick money management, spending analysis and budgeting made easy. I honestly don’t know how I managed without it before. This company is making waves in the industry by catching up to, and surpassing the needs of the digital age. Perfect integration with contactless devices, and I can even use payment with my smart watch. And I am fully aware and notified with every transaction I do. I can’t imagine ever needing to go to a brick and mortar bank again when Starling does everything I need and more. Reviewed on: 21st December 2018

A fun and efficient new way to bank

Starling do banking in a different way; yes, there are quite a few app-only start-up banks now in the UK, but there is probably only one which allows unlimited usage of your card abroad and pays you interest on money you've got in your account. It's fun to use, I've not experienced any glitches or problems yet and everything seems to work very smoothly. I can't recommend it highly enough. Reviewed on: 20th December 2018

Top bank

I just don’t know why someone who needs a current account would not open with Starling. Leaving the old guard standing Reviewed on: 19th December 2018

Fantastic service

Fantastic service online and with customer service. Nothing is too much trouble Reviewed on: 18th December 2018

Interesting features

You can set up your goal and save money easily, super customer service. Reviewed on: 18th December 2018

Hybrid between tech back and baks that can offer interest incentives

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES Reviewed on: 18th December 2018

What a bank account should be

All the benefits of a real time, in your hand account with meaningful interest on balances and a cost effective overdraft. The Marketplace adds interesting features and I never feel the need for a branch. Always recommend to friends and family. Reviewed on: 18th December 2018

Brilliant app and easy to use

The best banking app I have used to date. Offers a fully featured bank account with very clear and simple charges and interest payments. Instant notifications and metrics allow me to track my spending every day. Reviewed on: 17th December 2018
