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

Empowering

This account has really empowered me to take control and organise my finances in a easier and more productive way. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Best bank yet

Starling is my sixth bank overall, and my fourth internet bank. It’s the best so far. It is easy to use and secure, and the app is well designed. No complaints: everything works just fine. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Really amazing

Really easy to use and keep tack of all my spending Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Very good app

Love spaces facility and card details on the app. Many features other banking apps don’t have and it’s an ethical bank Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Simple, modern banking

Love it, from the easy apply process to the spaces to help manage money and savings. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Banking how it should be

Clear, simple and efficient. Other banks seem stuck in the dark ages compared to Starling Bank. They make banking fun and easy to navigate. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Reliable, flexible and user friendly

I LOVE Starling! I really value being able to categorise my spending into different areas so I can keep track of spending, ring-fencing funds for bills in dedicated 'spaces' and also having 'spaces' to save for specific items. It is convenient to be able to pay in / withdraw money at the post office, and to photograph a cheque from home. When I have contacted customer services the response has been informed and efficient. I highly recommend Starling. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

21st century banking - as it should be

I was skeptical about Starking, but I needed a simple addition to my 'traditional' bricks and mortar bank. I'm aiming to switch all my banking to Starling as soon as I can, because it's genuinely all the things you need from a bank, but reimagined without the clutter, the hassle and the usual air of fear and reverence. Saving spaces, ridiculously straightforward bill management, and more, all without the delay, the clunky infrastructure, and the endless complication of traditional banks. By re-thinking bank accounts from the ground up, Starling has positioned itself as the new bank to beat. And good luck with that! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

I love Starling, why can't all online banking be this good?

Easy to use, would definitely recommend to my friends and family. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Fantastic festuess

I love the features offered by Starling. They are user friendly and actually helpful! Also it’s great to have a bank that seems to be putting customers first rather than dodgy dealing and unethical investments. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
