Super user friendly

I love banking with Starling, everything is so easy and user friendly, never any fuss and I feel my money is secure. I tell all my friends about it. Reviewed on: 24th February 2023

Future is here

5
Opening my personal current account was easy. I didn't have to do anything to transfer my direct debits which was a relief for me. I opened and organised my spaces where I save money for different projects. I can add my photos to the spaces for easy recognition. I find the online system always reliable and user friendly. My personal favourite is requesting a payment. So efficient. Reviewed on: 24th February 2023

I love starling....wish it had more of a global presence and recognition as being a global citizen I have to use Revolut for other currencies that Starling doesnt offer. I also cant wait to be able to use credit facilities with them when the are offered... hopefully soon Reviewed on: 24th February 2023

Hassle free banking

5
I’ve had a current account with Starling for about 5 years. I’ve never had an issue, it’s safe, hassle free and very easy. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone. Reviewed on: 24th February 2023

So easy!

5
Really good app. All the info you need is at your fingertips. All queries are answered quickly. Impressed with security features. Reviewed on: 24th February 2023

App that works beautifully, help on hand when you need it

5
Something about starling as a account holder just feels different to other banks. You feel like you’ve just made the right choice from the get go. The app works really well but if you have a question, help is there in the chat function. So different from the interminable wait in the phone with my old bank. Starling’s commitment to women’s rights is also important to me! Reviewed on: 24th February 2023

Back into the 21st Century

5
Changing to Starling Bank brought me back into the 21st Century and more current. Very user friendly and helpful. Reviewed on: 24th February 2023
