Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

I have had an account for a couple years and I have watched other banks fade away. When I joined Starling, I signed up through the application on my phone. It was very easy. I confirmed my identity online, with somethey help me via live chat. I can upload cheques to my account. When I am a little out of pocket, I find a few spare pennies that have been automatically saved for me with each purchase. Starling is progressive and targets the current age and that is wonderful. Older people seem to get left behind in the times. This encourages them to adapt and embrace them. It welcomes them into the new age. Reviewed on: 5th March 2021

Excellent service.

The best bank that I have ever had an account with. The app is so easy to use and it makes managing my money simple. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Efficient and Easy to Navigate

So impressed with instant notification of any use of my account so avoiding fraudulent transactions. No faff accessing my account like other online banking services with UK high street bank. Excellent for travelling as no currency fees , can take out money at cash points abroad without fees and good exchange rate. I recommend to all my friends. The summary of spending helps you keep track. My husband had an account first and recommended to me. Keep it up Starling show those other banks what being a customer means Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
