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

Awesome and Reliable

I’ve been a customer now for several years, not once have I had any issues or concerns. I can use my card abroad without having any worries at all and the currency rates are exceptional. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Starling are High Fliers!

I have nothing but good things to say about Starling Bank! Easy, flexible, straightforward and honest, they have revolutionised banking and I will always use them. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Simply the best bank

Helps you manage your money so much better. The notifications that this bank provides keeps you ahead of any payments and it’s just one of them. You have to try it for a month and you’ll see the benefits. Even when paying by card I notice the app notifies me that money has gone out before the terminal I’m paying on tells the cashier that I’ve paid. So fast and instant. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
