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

5 Star

Although a reasonably new customer, so far my experience of Starling has been second to none. Simple to use, simple to understand. Wish I'd found them sooner. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Even a luddite like me can use it...

Starling bank is simple to use, clear and uncluttered, but offers multiple options for those who need more from their current account. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Best-Bank-EVER

Banking is a breeze with Starling app. Never before have I been able to organise my finances in such an ingenious way. I get my salary on the 15th, usually a nightmare to keep track what you actually can spend, but no more problems thanks to Starling Spaces + Bill Manager. I also love the pie-chart-overview of all my bank movements, collated by categories that I can assign to each payment. Best-Bank-EVER Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
