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

Easy To Use, Easy to Save

Helps me save with spaces and with a really easy interface. Reviewed on: 13th March 2022

Makes sense

I get interest paid in my current account from starling just for banking with them. No I’m not super rich or have a fancy account. It pays more than my savings account from another bank. At my old bank I had to log on at midnight to see if I’d been paid. In the starling app, it tells you a few days before when you are expecting some income and the time it will be deposited. I could go on and on about all the fab things starling has to offer but that would take to long. Reviewed on: 13th March 2022

A beath of fresh air

Amazing experience after joining Starling Bank. These banks that have been raking in massive profits should learn a lesson from Starling and look after their customers instead of themselves. Reviewed on: 13th March 2022

Ease of use and flexibility

Accounts were easy to set up and are straightforward to use. I particularly appreciate having a euro account in addition, being able to toggle between the accounts on the Starling app, and being able to use the same debit card for both accounts Reviewed on: 13th March 2022
