Excellent all round

5
Absolute joy to bank with Starling, app is wonderful to use with more features than I could have imagined before using Starling. Updates are frequent and never affect the smooth running of the app. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Awesome

Awesome bank and easy to use - business banking is just as good Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

What more does anyone want?

5
It is easy to open an account. It does just about everything anyone needs - Full banking services, instant notifications, direct debits/standing orders, interest on credit balances, relatively low overdraft rates, and free use for cash and purchases abroad. In GB you can use NatWest to deposit cheques and cash and the Post Office to deposit cash. Only downside is that, in Northern Ireland, there is no NatWest and cheques have to be posted off.

Starling are always releasing something new and exciting to improve the functionality of their app as well as releasing new features like recently post office cash deposits or rounding up. I feel like they listen to what their customers want and take action. I’m excited to see what comes next as I continue my banking experience with them. Keep up the great work everyone! Amazing job!

Great Bank

The personal account is really easy to use and navigate around through the app, and super fast transactions and transfers that show up pretty much instantly. All of the various processes of banking through Starling are so much easier than the bank I was with previously. I also like the Spaces feature. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018
