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

Easy to use

A really handy way of arranging your spends, home or abroad. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Practical and easy to use

when I moved to the uk as a new resident starling was the easiest bank to accommodate for my needs. Needed a bank account quickly to get my salary paid into and I need something modern and digitally advanced. All transitional banks have never ending steps in pretty much doing anything and starling was swift and efficient and super easy to use. I love the slaves they have which allow me to save up for different projects. And I love how the apps shows all my spendings in categories. Easy to add on Apple Pay, make transfers, and create joint accounts. I love it. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
