Switching was easy and the app is excellent. I prefer a quick "pay friends" option, rather than having to set everyone up as a payee. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

A credible contender.

I switched from Barclays and couldn't be happier. I'd banked with Barclays for nearly 40 years but will never return; I am so glad challenger banks now exist as credible contenders against the high street incumbents. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

The best bank I’ve ever been with. Their app is excellent, customer service is fantastic with an instant connection to a human. Honestly those other high street banks have a lot of catching up to do! Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Fantastic bank!

I have used Starling Bank for years and years and what started as a bank to use solely for travel abroad has become my daily use. It’s so quick and easy to use, the app is amazing and so simple and loads and does what you want it to super speedily - something it seems bigger banks often struggle with.
