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

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.

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.

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.

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

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

Open a bank account online with account and sort code in less than 10 mins Real time notifications Overdraft Apply pay And so much more...... Good bye legacy bank Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Wicked bank

Great Bank. Great customer service Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Excellence

Starling Bank's current account has proved to be this years best financial product for me. From using the card free abroad to the management features like categorised spending, card management and saving goals provided via the app. It's been a pleasure to bank with them, even in their infancy. Reviewed on: 16th January 2018

Amazing!

Love that there is no hassle with this account. It is all on my terms and is so quick and easy to manage. The real-time spending updates is great. Can't wait to see what they do next. Reviewed on: 22nd December 2017
