Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Best switch I ever made

Moving bank is one of those things people are reluctant to do. I knew my old bank sort code and account number verbatim and while I'd not been happy for a while it had never been bad enough to crystallise a move - until summer 2021 when things reached a crunch point and I moved to Starling. Wow, oh Wow. I should have moved years ago. What a fabulous bank, great service and a great app. I tell everyone I meet now that they should make the move - it will revolutionise their approach to current account banking.

All my account information in one place whenever I need it. Simple and straightforward to use with great security functions, and a bank that keeps in touch and keeps adapting. Reviewed on: 20th January 2022

A modern approach to banking

Everything is so much quicker and simpler when you mobile bank wuith Starling. Its so easy to keep track of your spending and setup new payees and payments. You can even cash in cheques via photo! Only improvement Id love to see is adding the ability to create custom categories for payments reporting. Reviewed on: 20th January 2022

Revolutionary banking for busy women.

Since I switched to starling Bank, my money management as a single mum with a very full time job has become easy rather than a constant stress. I feel in charge of my monthly outgoings and budgets even though money is tight at the moment. Saving spaces and pay bills space has ensured I can keep on top of my essential expenditure. I recommend Starling to all my friends and colleagues. No building based bank can compete. I used to have to take time off work to fit in with bank opening times. Thank you Starling. Your thought into helping people like me is appreciated. Reviewed on: 19th January 2022

Starling Bank is the business!

Love the fact that I'm with a clever digital bank, the app design and format, it's so practical and functional! Also the color of my debit card, the way Starling delivered it to me. Customer service is also efficient and the variety of tools and products is versatile and useful. I'm grateful! Reviewed on: 19th January 2022

How a bank should work

Just wish I had changed years ago. My old bank were Spain to deal with, to slow outmoded processes, to set in their ways, never available to sort problems, queued for ages, time spent on the phone with them . Nothing like Starling, brilliant bank. Would strongly recommend to everyone. Reviewed on: 19th January 2022
