Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

5
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

Love this bank. You can tell it was set up as an online bank rather than most high street banks that have retro fitted their online banking. It’s so easy intuitive AND UK based.. Reviewed on: 13th March 2022

My Starling account has stopped banking being an annoying pain! The app is well designed, clearly well tested and perfect for modern lifestyles. The service is friendly and helpful too. Couldn't recommend them more highly. Reviewed on: 13th March 2022
