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

So impressed

Love this bank. So easy to navigate, love the spaces to save for tax and NI - and applying for an account my teenage son was also so easy. Love the instant alerts. Reviewed on: 17th February 2022

Been using Starling just under a year and I love the bank

Please keep up the good work! It’s a good online bank and I enjoy using it. But I do worry that the quality may suffer and the bank expands. Please don’t tell quality suffer. Reviewed on: 17th February 2022

Excellent app!

Absolutely love Starling bank. The app is so easy to use and makes keeping track of my money so easy. With Spaces I’ve also managed to save more money that I ever have before and make sure I have money aside for other things too. It’s just brilliant!! Reviewed on: 17th February 2022

Simply starling

No fuss. Ever helpful. Easy to understand. As a 67yr old, not too good at computer stuff, Starling is brilliant for me. Reviewed on: 17th February 2022
