So easy to use

5
Easy and access. Best banking service Ive ever had. Reviewed on: 5th April 2023

Convenient, safe, trouble free banking.

5
I use my Starling current account as my pocket money account, transferring small quantities of money from main accounts so that if lose my phone or am scammed, I cannot lose all my money. Payment by phone or card is so convenient and has worked perfectly, with no errors and excellent communication.. Reviewed on: 5th April 2023

Easy-to-use mobile bank

5
Starling Bank is really easy to use and has lots of useful features, for example, real-time notifications of payments, reminders to have enough funds available to cover payments, saving spaces to ring-fence money separately from the current account. I find Starling Bank a joy to use and, best of all. they have green credentials that drew me to them in the first place - I don't want to fund big banks that pollute our world by ploughing their money into fossil fuels.
