The way banking should be.

5
I just love the option of having a sterling and euro account on one card. When I go on holidays I just transfer from my sterling account to my euro and I good to go. I also have the option of rounding up my spending. This allows me to save a little here and there and before you know it there is a bit extra for that holiday or something special.

Best bank I have ever used

Starling has a lovely app, the customer service is amazing (I had to phone them a few times after forgetting passwords and stuff, and never had to wait more than about 15 seconds). It is also great if you need a euros account. It has been a pleasure to have starling as my bank. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Starling - the straightforward bank

5
I’ve never come across a bank before that is so accessible and so easy to use online especially when travelling. It is so helpful to have instant notifications of spending and an thorough record of all spending transactions. Transfers in and out are also worry free. It makes me feel confident and in control of my money. Thank you Starling! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Great for budgeting

5
Love this bank. Special savings "spaces" make saving for special events easy. Money is secure when put into these spaces and can't be accessed unless you move them to your home page. It means if you lose your card your money is safe. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
