Brilliant

5
Fantastic bank, perfect for travel and customer service is very quick and effective- a rarity these days! Reviewed on: 2nd June 2023

Faultless account

5
Honestly, everything about my Starling Current Account is just right, the interface is spot on, simple, effective and informative. Notifications are immediate, spending abroad basically costs nothing, it's a fully fledged bank, accepted by all, digital payments are available, it has the works, and it costs me nothing, all accounts should be like this. Reviewed on: 2nd June 2023

Banking made easy

5
A fantastic and easy to use app, innovative ways to share cost and organise saving. Really easy to set up and have a joint account. The support team are amazing too and take on board new ideas, we saw a suggestion we made come in an update 3 months later. Highly recommended Reviewed on: 1st June 2023

Excellent application and listen to your feedback

5
I have recently joined Staring, they are a modern banking facility who offer innovative, easy to use tools. Their support team are available and responsive - such a change from other organisations. I love the fact they have a suggestions option to help them continue to innovate and meet customers needs. Reviewed on: 1st June 2023

Starling bank

I have both an adult account and a kite account. They are amazing. So ahead of other banks. Allowing us to take photos of cheques to pay them in and saving spaces or paying bills from saving spaces each month really helps with my money management. Their customer service has always been amazing also. 10/10 Reviewed on: 1st June 2023

The bank that is only getting better

5
Starling has an easy-to-use and intuitive app with lots of useful features, including comprehensive spending tracking, 'spaces' for separating different pots of money within the account for budgeting ease, and no charges for overseas spending! Starling has proven itself to be a reliable and trustworthy bank that offers a slowly expanding range of services, and I'm looking forward to seeing where else they go in future. Give them a try, you will not be disappointed! Reviewed on: 1st June 2023
