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

Perfect banking app

Does all that I require simply and without fuss. Any minor queries I have had have been promptly dealt with. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Simply the best!

We are so glad we switched to Starling this year. Just wish we did it sooner! It’s simple to use, works the way we want and best of all for us, we can run parallel euro accounts as we travel a lot. The in advance advices are great reminders. The few times we have had to contact Starling, the response has been timely and useful. We are experienced bankers and payments specialists ourselves of over 40 and 30 years standing respectively and we know what we are talking about. Just hoping the big boys don’t snaffle them up and ruin the whole thing! Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

The best digital bank by far

I've been banking with starling bank since 2019, and by far they are the best digital bank. The ease of use of the app and the fact that is very easy to get in touch with support via the app is brilliant. And the fee free spending abroad is fantastic for travelers. Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
