Starling Bank outage FAQ
Is Starling Bank down for everyone, or just me?
Look at the status at the top of this page. We connect to starlingbank.com directly from our servers, so if our check works but Starling Bank doesn't work for you, the problem is more likely your device, network or account. If our check fails, or reports have jumped in the last hour, Starling Bank is probably having a wider outage.
Why does this page say Starling Bank is up when it isn't working for me?
Our check confirms that starlingbank.com is reachable and responding. An outage can still affect only part of Starling Bank, such as logging in, the mobile app or a single feature, or only some regions. That's why visitor reports matter: when many people report problems at once, we flag Starling Bank as having problems even if the website loads.
How often do you check Starling Bank?
We check Starling Bank automatically several times a day, and again whenever someone opens this page and our last check is more than a few minutes old.
How do I report a Starling Bank outage?
Use "Report a problem" on this page to tell us what isn't working. Reports are anonymous: we don't store your IP address, only a one-way code that stops the same person reporting many times, plus your country.
