Foreign transactions, Kite cards and app. All great!

5
Love the low cost transactions abroad. Compatibility with multiple brands of smart watches is great, particularly compared to old school banks and credit cards. App is simple and love the kids Kite cards that allow my kids to get into understanding money and payments without the stress or concern of a separate account - and they can view that by themselves too.

The Starling app is excellent - really easy to use and handy to get instant notifications. I love the fact you’re not charged fees when using it abroad. The customer service is second to none - replies are often instant - when does that ever happen! I feel safe with them. Reviewed on: 11th March 2024

I switched to Starling from European based bank

I closed my European based account to transfer to Starling after trying them for few years when I moved to the UK. I was so pleased by them, that it was what made me chose to do this. I have no regret and every time I'm travelling to Europe I use Starling since. Reviewed on: 11th March 2024

Easy to use

5
Never had a problem using the app or paying with this account. Very smooth and cleanly designed. No lag which is a bug bear with other banking apps. Reviewed on: 7th March 2024
