Fresh approach to banking which is truly welcome

5
The signup process was effortless and super fast. My card arrived quickly and was presented memorably. My 5 year old sun still plays with the box now! I love the way you are notified via the app as soon as a purchase is made. The ability to lock your card for certain transactions is also very impressive. Reviewed on: 17th January 2018

Marketing leading banking app

5
This bank has the customer at the heart of everything they do. Whilst other high street banks are struggling with the concept of moving services online and away from branches and the post, Starling are taking leaps into the future. The application process through the app is seamless and easy. The account is opened instantly after ID verification and with real time transfers and Apple Pay you’re able to provision your MasterCard to your Apple Wallet and transact within minutes - this is revolutionary stuff. The app interface is intuitive and provides all the basic functionality you’d expect but with enhanced spend tracking, card management and budgeting. Wow. Every app developers fights to be on the homepage of your phone, well these guys are on mine and they deserve it. Reviewed on: 17th January 2018

Great Bank for Innovation; security and listening to customers

5
Starling Bank exceeds customer expectations in overall use and experience. New off the block, I have seen it grow driven by innovation - many ideas being suggested on the customer forum. Efficiency and appeal = the Greatest for a modern smart phone bank. Personally, I find it easy to organise my money and spending. Reviewed on: 17th January 2018

A great revelation in modern banking

5
The easy setup, simple interface and plethora of features that make Starling stand out miles ahead of the rest. Reviewed on: 17th January 2018

Simple, smart and delightful.

5
Having had the same bank for nearly 25 years, I was cautious about switching, but felt that banking was still stuck firmly in the past. After much research, I decided to give Starling a go. Wow! the initial signing up process sets the tone, this is a new approach. Within no time I had opened up the account, been approved for an overdraft, issued a virtual card that was enabled for Apple Pay and ready to go. The simplicity of the app is something to behold, pulse giving me a day view of my spending and and s monthly view categorised by merchant or category. Set my saving targets, upload a picture and monitor progress to it. Notifications for each transaction keeps you informed. I have seen the future of banking and this is it. Reviewed on: 17th January 2018
