Easy and efficient

5
Easy to use app, quick response to queries and so far my money and account have been safe from criminals Thank you Reviewed on: 9th April 2023

Great account, and easy access app.

5
After my wife opened her Starling account, I also applied for and opened a Starling current account, having my pensions paid into it each month, I then open a few "spaces" within it for various savings funds, eg: holiday and caravan expenses, etc., it's easy to save to, and withdraw from the "spaces" instantly to & from the main account using the online app, so much easier than having separate savings and current accounts, like my old bank. Would highly recommend Starling to anyone. Starling also has an amazing easily accessible customer service department, unlike my old bank. Reviewed on: 9th April 2023

From thebeasy process of joining and opening an account to the brilliant features the account has to do day to day banking along with savings Starling has it all. Its brilliant for travelling with as no extra charges or hidden fees, immediately see when money leaves your account including direct debits that are due the current account is easy to use and you see exactly where your money is going. The savings spaces where you can ring fence savings and even pay from that space is brilliant and sharing costs with family and friends is a bonus.
