Excellent Bank

I joined Starling within 2 years of them opening, so I thought it was a bit of a risk. However, it's great. You get interest on your current account (not a lot, but it's more than most), and you can separate your money and pay bills from spaces. The spaces feature is the one feature that has stopped me taking advantage of the current £200 cashback offers from banks. I just can't lose Spaces. I always know exactly how much money I have. The customer service has always been brilliant too. The staff are helpful, and responses are really quick. And it's so easy to deposit a cheque. The only downside is having to go to a post office to deposit cash. Which is not a huge inconvenience, but post offices are closing and there aren't many options locally for me.

Best bank in the UK

I've been with starling for a few years now, and they've got one of the best customer service teams I've ever dealt with. Quick response times when messaging though the app & all payments come though straight away Reviewed on: 24th March 2023

Best Digital Banking App

The app has literally been built from the ground up as a mobile app and it shows. It's the most modern app with the least amount of clutter and mess. Reviewed on: 24th March 2023

The best banking app

I switched about a year ago and I love it. It's easy to use and helps me keep my financial information at my fingertips. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2023

An App as it should be.

The best user interface and experience I have ever experienced, from security to making a payment in. Few taps. Savings goals for a rainy day and tools to help you manage your finances, excellent. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2023

Easy and Reliable

We set up Starling for the purpose of a joint account. It was wonderfully easy to set up, and to use. Since then we have transferred all direct debits from old accounts. I love how Starling categorises my spending, so I can more appropriately track where my cash goes. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2023
