Online Account

Great bank and i love the fact you immediately know you spent on this account by message. Reviewed on: 5th April 2023

No nonsense banking that's got your back

Switched after a high street bank monumentally failed in a fraud case on my then account. Starling were amazing with setting up a new account, virtual card to spend immediately and actual card 2/3 days later. Just had some fraudulent activity on this account, the response was outstanding, card cancelled, new one ordered, no disruption to my ability to access money, virtual card to use immediately, new one in the post, threats being managed, all done thru the app. Just moved my business account to them as I've been so impressed. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend d them. Best app I've ever seen, and can see who/what/when for all payments, and links to the location on your phone, if switched on. So many ways to combat fraud, knocks spots off my current...now old high street provider. Reviewed on: 5th April 2023

Best all rounded bank

fantastic

Banking Clever

Since using Starling it has really helped me with its Saving Pots/Spaces where I can put some money aside for specific things I want to save for and also have easy access to it if needed making it easier to budget. Also I’ve been really impressed with the amount of Categories I can put my spending in to track where I’m spending my money to help me save and cut down on certain purchases that I don’t always realise I’m wasting my money on like Takeaways or Coffee Shops and I can try and save that money for something more important that I need it for. It can be surprising how much money you spend on things without realising. Hopefully they continue to release more Categories in the future so I can get even more insight to my spending. I find my Current Account to be very easy to use and easy to chat to Customer Service if needed via the Starling App. I really would recommend this Bank to anyone thinking of Changing to a new Bank in the future. I had an account with another bank which I kept using at the start as I wasn’t sure if I’d like Starling Bank but after a short time using it I decided to transfer everything over to Starling and I’m enjoying the experience ever since.

Great and easy to use features

Simplified my everyday banking needs Reviewed on: 5th April 2023

An Amazing Good Bank

With all the trad banks closing their branches, they are miles behind the Starling Bank. They are slow, restricted and unfriendly. I have been with Starling Bank for years and it's comforting to know my money is in safe hands and yet easy for me to deal with. There really is no substitute. Go with Starling and fly Reviewed on: 5th April 2023

Efficient

Simple and friendly company with a straightforward and easy to use App. All very efficient, and notification and reminders about payments that are due well in advance (day before) giving you plenty of time to act accordingly Reviewed on: 5th April 2023
