Starling bank is the best experience I've ever had when it comes to banking, the app speed and features are years ahead of the rest of the industry and they always offer things extras as part of their service not like other mobile banks who try and charge for them etc Reviewed on: 19th February 2023

Fast & easy to set up

Super fast to set up a current account - it took less than 5 minutes. It has a great app which is going to be a fantastic tool to help me budget my monthly outgoings. I love that you can get a second card and set a limit. Reviewed on: 17th February 2023

Great Bank

I have Starling as a joint account, it's been an excellent bank and is so easy to use. The interest I have been getting is better than my other current account. I cannot recommend it enough and have done so to friends and family. The app is easy to use and has a lot to offer Reviewed on: 17th February 2023

Bank account that does everything it needs without fuss

Been a Starling customer for years now and never had any problems, the app based banking is great, they have good safeguards in place when making big transactions and the savings space/bills manager feature is really neat - something that other banks don't have. Reviewed on: 16th February 2023
