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

Outstanding

This bank I'd recommend to anyone, there speed and accuracy on transactions is faultless. Contact with customers is 100%, as yet can't fault them in anyway. There transactions to eu accounts, is faultless, fast, and most of all cost effective. Reviewed on: 12th February 2022

amazing bank

the only thing working against Starling is that is still not very well recognized as a "serious" bank and some agencies or other banks don't recognize it as such Reviewed on: 12th February 2022

Amazing and Extraordinary bank

I give them all the stars because they deserve it and they're more than a bank because their banking experience is top-notch. Reviewed on: 12th February 2022
