Sterling Starling Service

Easy to set up an account. Fantastic, easy to use app. Amazing customer service whenever I have needed it. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

An easy efficient bank

Money is always paid straight into my account, I have different ‘spaces’ set up where my account automatically puts money away for bills and savings etc, which you can set up to how you see fit. You can review your spending easily and it categorises your spending to make it easier to see where your money is going! All in all excellent bank!! Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Excellent! Brilliant! Super!

Starling is the best bank I've ever had. Everything is so easy and straightforward it's impossible to understand why other banks make things so complicated! Their costumer service is brilliant; quick to reply, they give you all the answers you need and solve everything as fast as possible - no delay anywhere, friendly and helpful. Various in-app options make banking, saving and keeping track of your spending and finances super easy. I constantly recommend Starling to everyone around me. I wish all companies were as great as Starling is - it would make life so easy. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Very easy

Cash like management in a cashless society

I have been banking primarily with Starling since 2018. The ambiguity and cumbersome way of banking with TSB was instantly obvious when I set up and started using Starling I never looked back. I feel that the Spaces feature is particularly helpful as it mimics the dividing your cash into piles for various outgoings, food, fuel etc. Sending and requesting money is super easy. My favourite feature is DD from a particular space. The ease of being able to stop a payment going out without cancellation of DD by simply not making available money from said space. It automatically calculates your total, set up an auto transfer on your pay day, easy peasy. The ability to see money going out with a day ahead is particularly helpful as companies who deduct your bills never or rarely deduct money on exact date they said they would. This is helpful for people who don’t have much left after paying everything. Another feature I like is instant readout of how much money I have left, if it’s a pending transaction it gets deducted from available money so if I don’t pay attention how much I spend I am just going to check out the balance, it’s instant, clear and no ambiguity like with TSB where you never know what’s pending and what’s gone out. With the ease of contactless payments it’s easy to forget and track how much money is there left in your card. I have gone over the overdraft because of this in the past with TSB, TSB shamelessly charging me for “not paying attention “ Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
