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 move ever

We are so impressed with Starling Bank. They make banking so simple and peace of mind. We were very cautious about changing as it seemed so different, but so glad we did. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Awesome bank and app

So easy to use, great features! So good I switched everything to Starling Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Fab Online Bank!

I love being able to pay in cheques via the App, to be able to send money easily and the greatest part is getting a notification every time money is drawn out or paid in - gives a real sense of security, whereas with other banks the onus is on me to keep checking my statements, or my card gets blocked because that bank 'thinks' I may have been a victim of fraud. With Starling I know immediately if I my account has been compromised - a notification that is worth its weight in gold! Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
