Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Great banking app

Makes my life so much easier with its notifications and spaces Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Best current account

Feature rich which is constantly developing too, some of the features released could do with a little polishing but can't fault the bank otherwise. Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Customer focused banking

I have used many different banks over the years but none are as customer focused as Starling Bank. The website has been built as a true e-commerce banking platform - unlike many traditional banks which have ‘grafted’ on their online banking services to their existing offer. The result is an exceptional online banking experience. Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Love Starling!

Love their product, love their brand and values, love the app. They are just easy to interact with. Couldn't go back to a high street bank again Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

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.

Quick transfer

Best application for daily spending Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Great service, best travelling bank account
