Inovative, lots of new ideas, easy to use

Really easy to use, always coming up with neat new features. Really impressive how easy managing money is with Starling. Reviewed on: 24th January 2023

Cheques are dead, cash is dead, digital is king.

Modern banking for the modern age. Yes, you can still pay in cash via the post office and scan cheques via the app (are you listening, Monzo?), but digital is the way to go. I don't need an old-fashioned bricks-and-mortar bank with it's clunky online offering. Everything I do, I can do via the app, and it... just works. The new virtual cards (which are free to set up) help me segregate my spending, and the breakdown of spending by category and merchant helps me see where I'm (over?)spending. Support via the app has always been quick and efficient on the very rare times I've had to use it. Reviewed on: 24th January 2023

very user friendly

best bank ever, The app is very user friendly and has all the features you would need for easy and convenient consumer banking Reviewed on: 24th January 2023

What a every debit card should be like.

Other bank's debit cards are extremely hard to manage, and it's hard to see how much you have in there all the time and hard to customise it. Starling changed the game. You can check what's in your bank account all the time since it's on your phone. not every bank does this. The card itself looks amazing. I love that there is no fees for international use, transfer or payments since I travel alot. Also, you don't have to pay anything to transfer money into your bank account, which some banks do. It has amazing, and quick support 24/7. The app makes everything simple. And they care about the environment because they plant a tree everytime you invite someone over to starling bank. Never regretted starling bank as my bank and always been happy with them, I'm now a very loyal client to them. Reviewed on: 24th January 2023
