Superb challenger bank

Starling has been a breath of fresh air compared to the more traditional banks. Brilliant app and brilliant service. Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Best thing to happen to uk banking

Fintech bank that is so easy to sign up for and app that is even easier to use to save, buy or transfer money with Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Can't believe how quickly they have pulled ahead of legacy banks! Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

The future of banking.

Starling Bank has been a fabulous experience so far. Opening the account took five minutes and was completed totally online. The app is a pleasure to use and I love being able to see my 'live' balance at all times. When I have had to contact customer services with a query this is also done via the app but the responses have always been quick and helpful. I am working towards a total switch to Starling and will not miss my 'legacy' bank at all. Highly recommended. Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

I've never seen my money like this before!

Starling Bank's Spending Insights and Goals features have really helped me to get on top of my money - seeing where it goes and making sure that I set up a Goal for big payments so that it isn't such a blow when I need to pay for them. I love the app and check it as often as I check my social media. Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

In control

I feel in total control of my money with the app being smooth and easy to use Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

The future of banking

The dinosaur traditional banks MUST pay attention to Starling Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Simply amazing!

By far the best bank, clear simple pricing. Great interest rates super fast, friendly support available 24/7. No fees for foreign exchange. Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Refreshingly new

Having banked with an 'online only' bank for a number of years, I was disappointed at their lack of innovation. Moving to Starling has been a great experience. It's refreshing to see new features that make my life easier and that no high street bank has. This really is a massive change in banking. Reviewed on: 16th January 2018
