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

An intuitive experience

From the intuitive app through to the genuinely helpful help desk, Starling is second to none! Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

I wish I had moved to starling years ago

My old bank had an app that kept crashing, constantly being updated at weekends and when calling them it took ages whilst on hold. Starling, when I have contacted them have been excellent. I especially like the ability to pay my cheques in via a photo. Love Starling Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Excellent

Excellent dual currency current account.

I was astonished to find that Starling offered a current account and debit card that could be used for both sterling and euro transactions. Flipping money between currencies was simple and offered a better rate than any other currency exchange. Brilliant. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
