Starling Bank Current account reviews (27453)

Secure, simple and easy

5
Starling allows me up to the minute transparency in movement of my finances in the simplest way. Utilising modern IT technology I have high speed updates of all transactions. I can use the spaces section to save for luxury items without the hassle of applying for a ‘savings account’. There are so many benefits which, with a traditional banking supplier, would cost me money to access. I have recommended Starling to everyone, it truly is the way forward and leaves all other banking suppliers in their wake! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Ahead of the game

5
Starling Bank are very good with letting you know a day before direct debits are due,and if you don't get to put money in they give you until 4pm to put money in. When paying cheques in it usually only takes 24 hours to clear which I love. I have recommended them to two family members and 3 friends, which they are know with Starling and are as pleased as me. Modern Banking, love it. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Customer service is always on hand and very quick and professional. Such an easy app to use for transfering money etc. Spending alerts are fantastic and being able to see where you have spent is so easy. Even the kite card for my kids is great. Only draw back is you cant use your debit card at pay at pump! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
