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

Easy uncomplicated and personal touches

I have changed my bank a few times in recent years but finally found one that suits me. It’s so easy to access and I love the little touches like adding your picture to separate savings like a holiday pic to encourage holiday savings, and easy to move back into your spending space when needed. The bills space is also brilliant I now know what is left is what I can use freely throughout the month. Very happy. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
