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 simple. So easy to understand

Banking made simple

I've had a Starling Current Account for a few years now and it gets better and better every year with continual innovation making managing my money easier. Receiving interest on my current account and getting perfect exchange rates when I'm abroad makes this the perfect bank for me. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Super easy to use

I love the money spaces. Money you can out away for bills and Starling even does this for you. Cannot rate this bank highly enough. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Easy and lifesaver

Since joining Starling, it has be come a useful part of my budgeting. I move disposable income onto my account and that is my budget for the month. It makes it a breeze! Also the security features put me at ease when I am transferring money to friends. Love it! Have recommended to family and friends! Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Great bank, app and customer service

We're with starling for almost 2 years and the online experience is not comparable to any other bank. Keep it this way! Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Clear and easy

The app is not too fussy, very clear and easy to use. Best I have had to date. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Great Banking experience

I used to use a number of different accounts to pay my bills, it's so much easier putting them through Starling using the bills pot. I also use the savings pot and roundup pots. Using starling switch was faultless in transferring my direct debits and standing orders across. My life is so much easier now I'm not constantly checking if I need to transfer money to other banks to cover different direct debits. I have my wages paid in every week and Starling is my main account. Highly recommend this bank Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

My favourite bank

It’s become my favourite bank, so easy to use the app and understand banking. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
