Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Starling has changed the way I organise my money

I love the Spaces feature on starling and the ability to pay your bills directly from them. This feature has made it so easy to be organised financially and has allowed me to save an incredible amount of money in a short amount of time. Their breakdown on your spending and ability to categorise transactions is really useful for seeing where your money is going. I also get notifications alerting me that a bill is due to coming day. Would 100% recommend Starling to everyone. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

5 years in and still best bank I’ve had!

I have now been with Starling for about 5 years and without a doubt it is the best banking experience I have had for both my business and personal banking. The app makes budgeting and saving easy. I can categorise my expenditure, which makes my accounting simple to do. Queries are dealt with quickly, though the ‘bot’ is not that useful (but I’ve never found one that is!) however it’s easy to contact the customer service team and a real answer.

The starling app is by far the best I've used

The starling app is by far the best I've used, simple but with all the information I need at a touch, I'm very impressed with my experience so far. Starling has made a long term customer in me. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Very good features for a 'no cost' account.

Very good features for a 'no cost' account. Constantly updated with new features. Excellent UI. Traditional banks are miles behind and it's like going back to the stone age with certain competition apps/UI designs. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

I joined Starling when I was studying abroad in South Korea. The staff is always friendly and ready to help in the best way they can. Also, I love the saving pots option which has helped me to save as well as the No fees when using abroad. I love Starling and always am ready to recommend to other people.
