Nothing spectacular - just how a bank should be.

Makes it very easy to budget, categories spending. You get a message of money due to be paid before it's paid. There is no charge for foreign currency transactions. It works in situations abroad where other cards can have problems like topping up a Paris travel card or for ticketless travel on Dutchtrains. It provides virtual cards, I have a card for online or overseas transactions that I only top up for known spending so if anything goes wrong the the card can be easily cancelled and only small sums could be withdrawn. Both a problem and a blessing is that credit cards are not available, you have to be able to cover your spending from your current account. Reviewed on: 14th April 2024

Starling is simply the best...

As an ex-banker with over 30 years experience, I can say that this is by far and away the best current account service I've ever seen. This is made even better because we can transfer £ & € in seconds by using the parallel accounts capability. Its an excellent service, so simple to use, with all the information you need at the touch of a button Reviewed on: 14th April 2024

It’s different and better

My previous dis-connected experience with 3 other well known banks took my towards Starling. Although, my account is small, I’ve felt I’ve had information available to me at a finger tip, support when some problems arises, and most important I now don’t have to hurdle many obstacles to speak to someone.
