Extremely pleased with the convenience and ease of online banking

I've been with Starling for the past six months and love the way they look at banking issues from the customer's point of view. Excellent communication when necessary. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

A breath of fresh air in the banking world

Outstanding product and seamless app based banking. A pleasure to use Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Best account I have ever had

Starling are without a doubt the best account I have ever opened! It’s so easy and straightforward and I won’t use any other card abroad now! I tell everyone to open an account with them because the app makes it so easy to manage. I honestly can’t recommend them enough. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Excellent challenger bank with the customer as the main focus.

I’ve been a customer for a little over two years, being new to challenger banks I had my reservations, but stealing truely blows everything else out of the water. Amazing features and no daft fees! Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Banking for the 21st Century.

Banking with Starling has completely revolutionised the way I manage my money. Before I opened my Starling account, I had no idea where my money was being spent. I’d find myself overdrawn and not have a clue how to find out when I became overdrawn. Spending insights, in app notifications, and the ability to save money from the same account are a winner! The starling team are always adding new features so users can better manage their money. Thank you team Starling, keep up the stellar work. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Fantastic service from a bank that's not on the high street

Everything about starling is fantastic, it is so easy to use with so many new features that the other banks are starting to copy. I love the notifications when money comes in or goes out Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Great product, amazing service.

Everything has been as promised. This is the future. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Simple and smart, the best of both worlds for personal banking

I absolutely love the way Starling speak to us as customers. Friendly and informative, offering the right amount of information in succinct, easy to understand ways. Always working hard to find new ways to help its customers, you really feel like these smart, savvy professionals have your best interests at heart, and not in the money sense!
