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

If you need them, they're there for you.

Can't really fault Starling - if you need help, they're there. But if you don't need help, they aren't intrusive. The app is quick and clean (and not too gimmicky, unlike some other banking apps) and even though they're a newer "non brick-and-mortar" bank, they feel professional. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
