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

Simple, practical and professional

Excellent so far, easy switch from Santander. Straightforward practical website with no unnecessary clutter. More foreign currency options would be useful and maybe a credit card. Reviewed on: 12th February 2022

Simple and secure

Easy to set up easy to use easy to add services. What’s not to like. Reviewed on: 12th February 2022

Easy take off and steady flight

I found the application process both efficient and robust. Now over three month of business banking I am happy with the service provided. I would like to see a Direct Debit facility developed for the business customers being able to bill their clients directly. Reviewed on: 12th February 2022
