Love the app

Very convenient, easy to open and manage. Card arrived promptly. No overdraft charges. Can use the card when abroad plus much more... and all this is free. Damn thay even pay me 0.5% on my balance. Reviewed on: 11th November 2018

Useful, Innovative Features

5
The Starling app has entirely changed the way I think about managing my money and saving. Being able to partition off as many saving goals as you like is fantastic and I love the way your daily and monthly transactions are displayed (omg I spend too much on a popular taxi service...) the customer service side is fab, responsive and friendly but you probably won't have to use it as it's so easy to do everything through the app! I tested for a few months and will be moving to using it as my main account. Oh and did I mention they pay interest :) Reviewed on: 11th November 2018

Super Simple!

Excellent experience right from switching to Starling which can be done completely through the app. The app itself is brilliantly simple. Spending abroad is amazing also as you get the best exchange rate and an instant notification telling you how much in pounds something has just cost you. Keep up the good work Reviewed on: 11th November 2018

Best bank i have ever used 24/7 service.

It gives me more control over my card like where it can be used. My personal fav is the quick card lock. The only thing that is missing is a time based transaction log and a web based interface. Reviewed on: 11th November 2018

Great Challenger Bank

Starling has impressed me with their excellent customer services and interesting integrations such a Flux. The only thing missing is web banking, but hopefully that would appear eventually. Reviewed on: 10th November 2018
