Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

No-Nonsense

No waiting, no excuses, simple easy banking, they show the others how it should be done. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2023

easy and service centric

easy to switch bank and all about the service Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

So easy to manage finances

The unlimited 'spaces' functionality means I can keep on top of my budget for the month and reach longer term savings goals through having several pots of money. Being able to quickly, efficiently, yet securely add new payees and authorise payments through the app is very handy, especially for splitting bills or sending friends money for my share of something. Starlings communications are easy to understand, friendly and welcoming and I've been 100% satisfied with service since opening my account. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Very reliable

This is the best bank for “on the go banking “ due to easy account opening.Convinient for tracking expenditures and basic utilities . Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

User friendly

I've been really pleased with Starling. The app is very user friendly with notifications of updates and new features. I like the 'Spaces' part which allows me to allocate money for savings and bills etc, whilst allowing me to dip into those pots in emergencies. I loved the snowglobe effect during the winter, such fun! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

There when most of the banking industry wasn't

I opened my account during one of the COVID lockdowns; my previous banking provider was being massively unhelpful, well absent really, after I had redeemed a current account mortgage. In desperation I turned to Starling and after a year am very glad I did so. Setting up the account was very simple, service responses (password resets) are quick, the account functionality is just what I need, nothing more and nothing less. IMO it is just what you need a current account to be simple, efficient and well supported. I'll never voluntarily return to the legacy banks. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Simply the best on-line bank.

Siimply the best on-line bank, the app is easy to navigate and moving funds around couldn't be simpler - thoroughly recommend them. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Great all rounded Bank

Starling bank has really helped me keep track of spendings and make all of my bills on time. I know of no other bank close to Starling, the app also makes everything so much easier with the fluidity and the speed it works at. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

I love the Starling Bank app for its flexibility, to be able to use spaces for saving and the great and timely communication when transferring or receiving money. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
