Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

5
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

Changed how I view online banki g

I wasn’t into online banking and resisted for several years. Until I was introduced to Starling Bank after my mother died. It is so intuitive, easy to set up, innovative, and easy to navigate and gives you all the information you need at a glance. Really enjoy using it, zero frustration which can’t be said for many online businesses! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
