AMAZING INTEREST

5
Never known a bank to give away so much free money, by having a steady income into your account the interest is paid monthly not Quartey or at the end of every year. Last year from my building society saving account which I took out in Coventry I received my interest for the year 12p I've earnt more than that in two months with starling and that's with a low income, imagine the possibilities!!!

Simply what a bank should be

I love Starling bank. It does everything I want a bank to do and makes it super simple to control my money. I love the way the app works and the clever features which are packed into it. My wife also loves it and she wouldn't log in to her previous bank's app due to it's complexity. Reviewed on: 31st March 2022

Very clear and very good

Starling is very good how it shows you what’s coming in and out of your account it feels like you have control over your finances and it’s very clear on how it is. It’s the best banking app by far :) Reviewed on: 31st March 2022
