Best Simple online banking provider

The app is sleek, have all the required features, easy to use, never had any outage or any issues with it. Feel money is safe and secure transfers always. super useful feature I like is using the card abroad and getting live exchange rates and some times better than them. Tension free shopping when we go for vacations. Even few cash withdrawals free abroad. Reviewed on: 17th April 2026

Ethical banking with ease

I love that Starling provides me ethical banking with ease. I am conscious of where I invest my money and wanted a bank that took an ethical stance. After much research I chose Starling and since have been wowed by their ease of use, the apps great features, I particularly like the 'spaces' where I can cordon off money but leave it in my current account. All round great experience. Reviewed on: 17th April 2026

A current account with benefits

There is a Euro account that runs alongside the current account. So easy to transfer money into it too. Very handy for travel within Europe. No more searching for currency exchange and a good rate at all times. Reviewed on: 17th April 2026

Great app

Very easy to open an account, great tutorials on how to use the app. Love how quick they notify you when money has entered or left your account by notification.
