Excellent service and app interface!

5
I always used Starling as a kind of secondary account but was so impressed how easy it was to manage my current account, keep track of spending, ease of deposits, spaces sector for savings goals, that I made the permanent switch. Outstanding service and the app user interface is seamless. Should have made the switch long ago. Excellent! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Pensioner finds it all so easy

5
I have been with Starling for about 5 years and I find it all so easy to manage my financial situation. They offer several systems to enable regular monthly payments which saves me worrying about missing them. I have already recommended them to friends, as they are so much easier than the Big traditional ones. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

A great online bank with excellent KYC processes, brilliant and informative app and an excellent range of services. Being able to link a Sterling and Euro account and benefit from the actual exchange rate when spending makes a huge difference. Well done. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
