Fantastic Banking

Great app,easy to use, always available, always quick and easy. Love the savings pockets. Only wish they did international cheque deposits for a perfect score! Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Simple and user-friendly interface

5
Really easy to use, a simple at-a-glance interface that shows you your day's spending (and, with a swipe, a breakdown of your month's spending), easy to set up and access saving spaces that can be personalised with your own visual reminders, and just generally easy to set up money transfers. Whenever I've had a security problem it's been easy to confirm my identity with a video message to get back on. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Faultless banking, switched from RBS which were in the Stone age compared to Starling. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Secure with Starling

App is so easy to navigate, organises my spending into categories so I can see at a glance what types of payment I’m making and where I can make savings. Transfers are easy and instantaneous. And most importantly my money feels secure with Starling. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
