A truly modern and flexible way of banking. Would highly recommend to anyone, whether you are starting out or want to move from your old bank, I can’t stress enough how good Starling Bank is. Reviewed on: 25th March 2022

Great all-round experience

5
After nearly 40 years of being an RBS customer I switched to Starling because of RBS' poor record on violations. The switch was so easy, customer service is superb, the app easy to use and the Starling debit card (that easily switches between my Current and Euro accounts) is clever and extremely useful. All-in, no regrets at leaving RBS and glad to be a customer of a challenger bank. Thanks Starling. Reviewed on: 25th March 2022

We have money left in our account at the end of the month. The app gives me flexibility to set up payment spaces for all my standing orders and direct debits. Reviewed on: 25th March 2022

Ethical and easy to use

5
Since switching to starling I have continued to be pleased with my choice - a bank which has strong ethics is vital to me. But even if it isn't a thing for you I'd still recommend them - banking by app in the 21st century just makes sense, and feels more secure than others I've used previously. I LOVE this bank!
