Starling Bank Current account reviews (27453)

Great product and functionality

I took a Starling account out initially because of the overseas ATM withdrawal limits which were really competitive. Since then I've moved my current account over to them because: (i) they seem to really care about security, and when they do communicate on security issues, they do in a way which never confuses me as to whether the message could actually be a scam(!); and (ii) there is always product build, which makes me think of them as a reactive, continually improving product (for example on Spaces). They seem to be less concerned about publicity than some of the other digital banks, and more concerned about making a solid, safe product, and in that sense it feels like they are the best of both worlds.
