Embracing the digital age

5
Rapid app updates, incrementally adding features and great customer service are a winning combination. Very happy customer! Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Intuitive & Easy

5
My starlit account is everything I need it to be and more; from great exchange rates whilst abroad, to helping me save for key milestones and controlling everything via my smartphone. It slots easily into my life and I’ve become an active bank user rather than a passive one, which is certainly the way I treated the high street bank account that I held for over 20 years.

The Future Of Banking Is Here

Applying for the account was surprisingly pain free. Enticed by the no-fees abroad aspect of the account, I have come to use the account for other business more and more. My long standing current account experience is looking shabby in comparison with the Starling account. A recent startup, Starling are happy to take and act on suggestions from their customers for improving their product. That is a journey I look forward to being part of.

Great bank easy to use.

Excellent account. Easy to use. Helps manage money. Great overdraft. Great rates abroad. Not much more I could ask for in a bank. Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Great and Easy to set up

5
As a challenger bank, Starling's easy to set up and very easy to use. Definitely a challenger to the traditional high street banks available Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Amazing, innovative, modern, always improving, amazing support.

5
I haven't completely switched over to having Starling Bank my only account, but it's getting ever closer to that. The app is incredibly easy to use and is constantly being improved. The potential for developers with the Starling API is also a huge contributing factor to me making an account. The one time I had to contact customer support it was almost as instant as an IM chat and they were more than happy to help the best they could. Big fan and only becoming more so! Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Banking done right.

5
I have been with Starling for 6 months now and everything has been seamless, queries resolved straight away, an almost too easy switching experience and a feeling that they are listening to their customers and actually changing their product and development cycle based on customer feedback. Can’t recommend enough and I am just waiting for the business account now! Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

The best current account.

5
I joined Starling Bank in May 2016, since then my financial life has improved so much and I am enjoying banking again. I recommend everyone to Starling. Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Innovative Banking at its Best

5
I looked and experienced the majority of New fintech banks around, and without a doubt, Starling continues to innovate- putting banking and my finances into my hands where it belongs. I recommend them to everyone, and I look forward to seeing where they go to from here. Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

The Future is here
