Brilliant banking at the touch of a button

Brilliant banking, the app is so easy to use, wish I'd changed over years ago, I was looking for a new bank as my local branch closed, 2 of my friends recommended Starling, I was never one for banking via an app on my phone but was told so many good things so decided to give it a go, haven't regretted one second, it's fantastic and I should've done it years ago, so easy to manage my bills and keep track of everything at the touch of a button, 5 ⭐.

Everything you need in a bank!

Always been very helpful and although everything is done online you still feel there are humans at the other end Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Sharp efficient and progressive bank

Good to get away from banks who spend so much money on hapless ads. Feels as though you are moving with the times. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Best bank ever

Great service, easy to use, and I love spaces. With other banks I had to open different accounts to save money. Now with spaces it is so easy, when income arrives I immediately put it into the different spaces. That way I budget better and don’t overspend money I think I have until a big bill comes in.

Best bank that I have been with

I cannot fault Starling at all. Everything I need in a bank I get from Starling—great mobile app, easy to make payments, separate card for shopping etc, saving spaces, virtual card for online payments etc etc Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Amazing simplicity

Very straight forward and friendly service. You even get interest added. I would never change again to another bank. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Great to analyse

As the title states “Great to analyse”, see by merchant, category etc in where your money goes is really good. Immediately notified about spending via Apple Pay / Card, previous bank took 3 days. Could do with reacting to customer payments feedback quicker. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Banking made simple

Banking for the modern age. Easy to use, in every way. No costs for spending abroad. Great stuff! Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
