No-Nonsense

No waiting, no excuses, simple easy banking, they show the others how it should be done. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2023

Helped me no end

Really helped me to sort out my finances. I have dyscalculia and the app has been amazing helping me to budget. Thank you. Reviewed on: 11th April 2022

Best ever bank

I can confirm that Starling bank is one of the best banks I have dealt with. The easy access and immediate reaction on every use are brilliant, the app on my phone is so easy and clear to use, and I understand everything in it so softly. Reviewed on: 11th April 2022

Best and easy banking

Really easy to manage and good for savings Reviewed on: 11th April 2022

The way forward in personal banking

Cannot fault, online banking the way to go. Starling have a ‘human’ feel even though all automated Reviewed on: 11th April 2022

life-changing

so easy to use - using with my previous bank felt like I was constantly walking uphill through mud. Starling have made everything so easy to use - finally feel like I'm living in the 21st century! They have made saving easier, and the online features are so incredibly up-to-date I'm able to settle debts with my friends in the blink of an eye. I even managed to scan some cheques from HMRC after I was over taxed with just my phone whereas my previous bank I was never able to work out how to deposit them. Could not recommend them to anyone more - totally life-changing. I feel more present in my life and more on to of my finances than ever before. Reviewed on: 11th April 2022

Starling: Bank Of The Free

As a person, I do not like being charged to withdraw or transfer my money. Like why should I pay to get my money? I’d have otherwise left it at home yeah? Then I found Starling Bank, with zero transfer, and withdrawal fees, up to £100 contactless payments, easy-to-use interface and excellent customer service. I’d surely recommend Starling to anyone looking to be in charge of their finances. Starling, to the stars and beyond. Reviewed on: 11th April 2022
