Have been using Starling for a number of years, really easy to use app, great for budgeting and organising your finances with spaces. Haven't used the round-up feature but think it's great that it's there. Comms are good, relevant and interesting emails and info given. Reviewed on: 18th March 2026

Great digital bank, best current account app, friendly quick customer services. Good product offerings. Not 100% on the new branding though Reviewed on: 14th March 2026

I've never had such a good experience with a mobile app before. I've been using Starling for about 3 years now and the app works seamlessly and you can do everything you need to through; which is probably why their customer service team respond so quickly when you start a chat. The gold standard for banking. Reviewed on: 20th February 2026

Reply from Starling Bank Hi there, Wow, “the gold standard” has absolutely made our day! We’re so pleased the app’s been working seamlessly for you over the past three years. Making things simple to manage in-app (and being quick to respond when you need us) is exactly what we aim for, so this is brilliant to read. Thanks for such a lovely review.

Fantastic Experience

So easy to set up a new account and they take over and transfer all DD's and SO's from old bank to them. Really easy to use and navigate website and mobile site, easy to set up and transfer monies, lovely the spaces section and setting up a savings account was just simple. Reviewed on: 19th February 2026

Reply from Starling Bank Hi Mark, This is so lovely to read, thank you! Switching should feel smooth and stress-free, so we’re thrilled it was that easy for you. From moving your direct debits and standing orders to setting up Spaces and savings, it’s great to hear everything’s been simple to manage. That’s exactly how banking should feel!
