This online bank is super easy to use and provides an excellent service. I love the fact that you can have 'spaces' for different pots of money and it's so easy to transfer. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Excellent service

I would recommend Starling Bank to anyone. They give a great service and never had a problem. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

State of the art bank

Starling Bank is a modern internet only bank. The app. is easy to use and there are several useful features to make your banking easier to control. Starling is very quick answering any questions. There is a parallel Euro account too. Paying abroad with the Debit card gives a perfect exchange rate. Switch the card online to use Euros or pounds. I would like to use Starling in a browser as well as the app. That is my only criticism. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Banking as it should be
