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

The starling bank is really easy to use. The application is simple and fast for customers. I even received interest after I saved more than 200 pounds. Reviewed on: 13th March 2022

Definitely Recommended

The transfer from my previous bank was straightforward and everything since then has been hitch free. A feature of the app of use to me is the ability to attach a note or photo of a bill to each transaction. Reviewed on: 13th March 2022

Superb Bank

I had been with HSBC for over 30 years so was unsure which bank to move to, I’m really glad I picked Starling. It’s so easy to use their app to check balance and make payments, I also love the notifications when money is paid in or out of my account. Would definitely recommend Starling Bank Reviewed on: 13th March 2022

Fast, Accessible and Efficient

As an international student all the other banks I tried to open an account with required long and stressful documentation to prove my status. Starling had the least stressful requirements and I was able to get my card within a few days of opening my bank account. I am truly grateful for the ease of payments, saving spaces and the spending summary features I have experienced with Starling. Reviewed on: 13th March 2022
