Banking of the future

Starling Bank really cares about its customers and really is baking for the people. It doesn't overwhelm with a wealth of information but it educates and informs how an every day person can manage their finances. Reviewed on: 18th January 2023

Fantastic customer servic

easy use app and really great customer service Reviewed on: 18th January 2023

Simple banking

Such a simple to understand and easy app. I particularly like the spaces where I can store money for different things like holiday or shopping and I don’t have to open separate accounts. The account was easy to open and very uncomplicated. Transactions are so simple to carry out. I have recommended it to my daughter to runs a small business and it has really helped her. She can easily send a link to her customers to pay her. The bank have a good ethical status too. Reviewed on: 18th January 2023

Nice and simple bank account

Very happy with my Starling account, was quick and easy to setup from my phone and could start using the account straight away with my digital card. No paper work or going into a branch to get going. Reviewed on: 17th January 2023

Saving spaces for smart spending

Opening a starling account has opened my eyes to smart allocation of my money. Being able to label each ‘pot’ encourages me to spend wisely. Stopping to think about whether or not I need to buy something. Should I spend? Or should I save ? Saving is winning, my spaces are thriving! Reviewed on: 16th January 2023

Love them, great bank

Always helpful, never takes long for a customer service rep, awesome features on the app, always getting better! Keep it up Starling! Reviewed on: 14th January 2023

Simply and intuitive

I was a little skeptical being there is no branch but it has helped fantastically getting our finances in order and being able to separate our savings in different spaces rather than constantly try to remember what amount is for what project. Reviewed on: 14th January 2023

Amazing easy account

Starling bank go above and beyond to make life easy in their app, opening an account is simple, but strict rules around ID checking which is great. The app is easy and the notifications you get when you spend are great. The spaces you can create to save too are a great idea and helped us save for our holiday!! Great bank!! Reviewed on: 14th January 2023

Quick, simple but strong

As above, everything with starling is quick and easy to access with simple and easy to understand products. That being said they are strong product offerings with a great app. Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

Good international bank

I've only just signed up for them but was quick and easy and I'll be testing them out when I next go backpacking. Reviewed on: 13th January 2023
