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

Simply the best

I joined starling Bank in 2019 after hearing rave reviews, I was a little skeptical at first with it being all online / app based but boy was I surprised!! Starling has been SO simple and easy to use, despite them not having a physical store I have found it easier than any high street bank to speak to customer services if I have any queries or questions which have then always been dealt with very quickly. The app itself is very user friendly and i love the addition of the saving squares its really helped me managed my finances. With the Starling app I can see exactly where all my money is going which is fantastic especially in a day and age where we can tap our card and spend money without giving it a second thought! Highly recommended Starling to anyone looking for a reliable, progressive, modern bank. Reviewed on: 14th March 2022

Excellent customer service and app

just moved over to Starling for our household joint account and the whole process couldn't have been easier. Now the account is up and running, its very easy to manage our household expenditure and see where everything is going on the app. We're even considering changing to Starling for our main current accounts as the experience is so good.
