Love the Spaces feature.

5
I love how easy it was to set up an account. I love the spaces feature that allows you to put money aside each month for specific things . This really helps you budget smarter. The fact you can set up cards on those spaces is great too. Definitely would recommend this bank to others. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

I bloomin' LOVE Starling.

I LOVE the Starling app. Transaction notifications appear lightning-fast, so I'm always 100% sure of my available balance. The Spaces feature is a god-send. The ability to add a note and/or an image to a transaction - so you can remember what on earth it was for - is fantastic. Being able to send a WhatsApp link to a friend to split a bill - brilliant. I have opened over half a dozen other current accounts in the last year, taking advantage of switch offers and NONE of them have come close to the features and user-friendliness of Starling. I can't imagine how other people cope with the slow, dated, clunky online banking experience provided by Other Banks. Starling is light-years ahead. I love them and I will never leave.
