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

Banking with starling I have total confidence that my money is in safe hands. I am much happier knowing I can speak directly to a member of staff it I have to discuss any issues. I feel in control of my own banking which is now stress free. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

I chose to bank with Starling when my local Lloyds bank closed and they were forcing me to bank online anyway, Starling were so easy to deal with it was a no brainer for me, and I have never regretted the move! Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Simple to use & very effective

They’ve kept banking simple, while adding great features - spending categories and analysis, saving spaces, access to account details, for example. Have recommended to numerous friends and family who have all taken up banking with Starling, and love it. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

It's so easy.

It's so easy. My favourite thing is Spaces not just for saving but also to put money aside for this pesky mid- month direct debits and pay them straight from the space too Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
