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 access

Easy access to funds. Very useful features to help saving easier and efficient Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Perfect banking

Easy to do my banking, no trying to pop to high street bank during my lunch hour anymore. Easy user interface. Easy to monitor your spending, quick and easy to freeze card if lost. Instant updates when you spend. Love it Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

an overall great experience with a great bank

As an international student, it was very difficult to sign up for a bank account, but not with starling! I was able to get set up on the app within a couple days, its so easy to use and makes it easy to send/request money! I really like that they request verification on any large purchases so I know my money is safe! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
