Review of the Starling Bank, Current Account:

Banking made easy

This back has shifted my expectations on what a bank should be. Instant notifications and a great app. I've not had to contact customer services for a long time because everything is so easy. However if I need to then I can do it without leaving the app. Simply fantastic Reviewed on: 5th November 2019

Starling impressed me with its use of technology

Starling impressed me with its use of technology that made signing up easy and the everyday banking has been simple and secure. The only downside is the slow pace of development for easy savings tools and products that are already in market from various third parties. Reviewed on: 24th January 2026

one of few banks that the on line experience is amazing, very little hassle and easy to use Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026

Tech savvy favourite

I like the origin story of Starling and it feels like a modern bank vs all the old school Goliath’s. It’s very tech savvy which means the app is super intuitive with regular helpful updates. One of my favourite features is ‘spaces’ where I can set different saving pots. They’re not just saving pots. They suggest clever ways to do it like per transaction saving or monthly. The whole UX has made me more interested in my banking. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026

Financail peace and clarity with Starling App

I love Starling Bank's app which has enabled me to set up limited saving spaces which has helped me stay on track with every single payment I make throughout the year. It reminds me if a bill is coming up and I can allocate a saving space to pay an individual bill from. This has helped me acquire finance hygiene, mental clarity and emotional calm around my money.

Simple, stellar, sensible

Easy to use App. Simple breakdowns of ins and outs; categories. Advice and info clear. Great coloured card easy to spot in purse. A sensible no frills well thought out current account Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026

It is a reliable and simple to use system.

It is a reliable and simple to use system which suits me, a pensioner with pensions only as income. I have a feeling that the Starling system is both secure and is dependable. I particularly like the debit credit forecast warnings which allow me to plan and prevent me from becoming overdrawn. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2026
