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 zero issues.

I've been with Starling for the last few year probably 2017/18 I joined, unlike traditional bank with Starling you get instant payment notifications where with most traditional bank their backend are probably design back in the 80/90s you get zero notifications and have to wait 2/3 days to see the transaction.
