Hassle free online account

Easy to navigate and use app. 'Spaces' allow you to put money away in different allocated pots so that you can allocate funds to different areas, car insurance, tax bill, holidays etc. Good communications from the Bank and when I had an issue from a third party, I found the Bank helpful and practical.

Great bank

It was really hard for me when I moved to the UK to open a bank account. I was recommended Starling bank and have been using it for 3 years now. The app is so easy to use, great to track purchases and keep them organised. Also, works amazingly good outside of the country! So is great for holiday :) Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

After banking with a number of different banks (both online and high Street) I can honestly say that the best customer service I have received has been from Starling! Friendly, professional and quick. I would recommend their current account to anyone. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Easy to use app

The app is incredibly user friendly, I can access my balance at any time. I like the fact that when direct debits are due I’m notified the day before and transfers are very easy to do. I have been with Starling for over a year now and I have been extremely impressed with the service I have received. I would and do recommend this bank to all my friends. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
