Making Daily Financial Control a Breeze

5
Where do I begin? Starling has transformed every aspect of banking and developed one of the most useful apps a smart phone user can have. From instant transaction notifications, balance/spend tracking, free overseas transactions and now it’s ‘round up your pennies’ feature. What more could you want from a bank! The impact of using a Starling currrnt account has been life changing and I have never looked back. We finally have a bank doing what banks should with the technology available in 2018.

Best bank, Bank of the future

It is easy to be with Starling, the app. is amaizing and very easy to use. The best bank Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

quick effective hassle free banking

5
love the chat option on the app without having to wait days for a response like most banks. App based banking is the way forward, being able to see and control my spending with instant notifications of my debit card use also allows for a great security feature so if the is a transaction I didn't authorise I'd know instantly.

Starling makes Bureau de change obsolete

5
Starling banks support and zero commission in overseas use makes Bureau de change obsolete. You no longer need to get travel money before hand and can simply withdraw from atm machine when travelling with amazing rate. Can’t be any happier. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Simple and feature rich

5
Having my entire Bank in a single app brings huge convenience, being able to control every aspect off my money with having to make appointments or travel to a local branch like other banks is makes the experience so simple. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Bank of Future

5
I’ve been with Starling Bank short time, however they dealt with moving my account to them extremely fast. I didn’t have to do anything. I like the contemporary design of banking app which is extremely easy to use. Definitely a bank of the future. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Excellence in FinTech

5
Starling is the best uk account I have ever encountered, I have used 20 different services by FinTech banks and high street banks, I have no doubt that Starling will be one of the top banks in less than 5 years. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018
