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

Best Bank Ever!

The easiest bank to bank with

I've been with a few banks over the years and Starling is by far the easiest to use. The app is phenominal and the fact that I can do all that I need to do in the app means I don't have to deal with phoning anyone which makes my introverted self very happy. The settle up feature is also such a joy to use and people are always impressed when I get them to use it to pay me back. I recommend Starling to everyone that I can and will not be switching away any time soon. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
