Great for travelling abroad

Instant notifications for payments and cash withdrawal abroad together with the best exchange rate going. You even get interest on your account balance! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

On Target

Starling Bank is right on target and right on trend! I’m a very happy customer Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Better than the other one.

5
I’ve had a few current accounts over the years, and have found Starling great to bank with and I now use it as my main account. Another certain Fintech Company (logo is a multicoloured M) tends to get all the limelight, but I prefer Starling and would recommend them. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

The best banking app I have ever used!

5
After years of using traditional banking setups from the likes of Natwest & Halifax, around a year ago I decided to try out the newer banking solutions such as Monzo & Starling - after trying both simultaneously for a few months I decided that Starling was the overall winner, for me it's the app setup, frequent app updates and overall stability that Starling provides that puts it at the top. A real hidden gem that I hope becomes common knowledge! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Smooth, smart and sleek

5
Top app. Great features. Big fan of the breakdown functionality and spaces. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

A game changer!

5
Launched later than Monzo but so much more of a full service current account and customer service is superb. This is how banking should be! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Apps brilliant, security is great. Travel benefits are excellent. If I didn’t work for a competitor company I would use them for my main banking! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
