Just so easy

Easy set up, great info sent out regularly and love the “spaces” Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Starling is great!

Starling is great! So easy to use and with so many great features like the spaces. Now that I can split incoming money to spaces using percentages it’s even better! And the fact that I don’t have to pay a few for foreign currency transactions has always been my favourite thing. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Seamless banking - love it!

Seamless and efficient process to open new accounts and switch banks. The app is intuitive and easy to use. The visuals and spaces make budgeting and tracking spending and saving so easy. I initially was drawn to Starling for the green credentials and being a UK based bank. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Good everywhere

I opened my account as it had been recommended to me as the best to use while travelling, which was true. So good I continued to use it on my return Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Excellent Bank

When I emigrated from the Netherlands to the UK in 2019, I was looking for a British bank. I first spoke to them personally in the office. Then I had an account for a few months. I have had very bad experiences with Nationwide (too much waffle, waffle, failure to keep appointments), HSBC (extremely chaotic and illogical security, no manners to new customers, lack of basic balance administration), Halifax (extremely chaotic menu, lack of basic balance administration), Barclays (completely old-fashioned approach to new customers), Lloyds (employees eating sandwiches at the counter, appointments they forget). Until I met Starling Bank. None of that. Perfect balance administration. As a Dutch person, I am used to doing financial things straight forward. And their helpdesk responds quickly. Happy Chappy now. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Saving money is easy with money pots.....

I really enjoy the money pots keeping money saved is really easy. I like the pie chart telling you exactly what you spend your money on. It makes seeing what is being spent when and where easy. Being online means it is fast at setting up and there is no paperwork, making it easy to fill in forms using the phone or computer. Customer service is also done through chat on the phone or computer so you don't have to speak to anyone if you suffer from anixety like me, this is great as I have problems speaking on phones.
