I like the way the app works as it should. Spending abroad doesn’t cost extra and I get notified immediately what it’s cost me in Sterling after paying by card. Reviewed on: 17th March 2023

Good starting point but not there yet

3
Don't get me wrong, it is a decent and responsive app. However the online banking is quite lacking, their 0.05% interest rate is joke, not being able to export a pdf of a single transaction is a pain. Reviewed on: 17th March 2023

Fast and efficient

Payments are instant and easy to do. Reviewed on: 17th March 2023

Seamless banking

5
Moving both of our accounts over to Starling has been seamless. We love having the personal and joint account in one app. It’s been so easy to save money having spaces that automatically transfers money across. We love being able to see what we’ve spent our money on, so we can be cautious. Customer service has also been a dream. Someone replies so fast, and it’s helpful for concerns or worries. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Like a Breath of Fresh Air

This is the way forwards, no costly arrangements and paying for things we do not need, turn more of the others branches into coffee shops Starling is an excellent online bank that is leading the way, I have never been happier or in a better financial position Thanks to them Reviewed on: 16th March 2023
