Cant speak highly enough about this bank. It has changed the way I bank and has made my life so much easier. Reviewed on: 25th January 2018

Slick and fuss free!

5
I've been using Starling Bank for 8 months now and I love it's forward thinking approach, slick processes, easy to use app, the features inc spending highlights, and being able to use it abroad at the best exchange rate without commission. Keep doing what you're doing Starling. Reviewed on: 25th January 2018

Fantastic easy and hassle free

5
So impressed so far with Starling. Card came so quickly, it took under 5 minutes to set up and verification completed under an hour later. Going to be switching over permanently! Reviewed on: 24th January 2018

Easy and Online.

5
Honestly this is the clearest, easiest to understand bank account I’ve ever had. Real time app notifications let me keep control of my money easily. No fees whilst abroad also make for an amazing account experience. Reviewed on: 24th January 2018

Simple and informative

5
The account was extremely easy to set up, and user friendly. Managing my account has been simple with all limits and functionality clearly explained. The spending breakdown is extremely useful! Reviewed on: 24th January 2018

Excellent

5
Love the simplicity of the app and the Goals feature is a winner Reviewed on: 24th January 2018

Excellent ank so far, with one minor problem for those trying to improve their linguistics!

5
For once, everything has worked exactly as promised. ID confirmed within seconds, account opened, card delivered promptly, and everything working just as it should, with one slightly obscure problem - transfers can't be sent from their app when using Swedish as your device's main language. Not great when you're learning a new langauge to have to swap each time you need to send money, but I guess I'm in the minority here. Reviewed on: 24th January 2018

Amazing

5
They are an amazing mobile only bank who is way ahead of the competition. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2018
