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

Fuss Free & Elegant

Starling was recommended by my daughter. I loved the idea of a bank founded by a woman with less of the murky shenanigans of the male dominated industry. I have loved it. It is so user friendly, when payments arrive in my account it informs me. I don't have to check. It has a beautiful clear lay out and great customer service. I wish I had found it sooner.

Wish We Had ChangedBanks Sooner

Best thing we’ve done changing to Starling. And we have total control. Everything is so easy and quick. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Modern and frictionless

Best bank I've been with, up-to-date and simple to use. The overall design is also very slick and effective. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

The future of banking

Starling has transformed a disgustingly outdated industry and brought it right up to the present day in a single motion. Gone are the days of the typical banks as we know it which requires people to make phone calls to join lengthy queues, or to turn up at a branch in person to carry out something that should be easier to do online. The big-named banks have tried to introduce banking apps during the era of smart technology but they have been utterly appalling for usability and functionality. The Starling app is filled with powerful functions and tools all while being able to do just about anything in an instant. It is incredible- I only wish I had found it sooner. Goodbye high street banks; extinction beckons. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Easy banking

Not really technical but found app very easy to use Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Brilliant

Really pleased that I changed my bank account to Starling. The app is simple to use, and any time money is received or withdrawn, I get a text notification. It also reminds me in advance of payments due. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Innovative and smart yet very user friendly.

I am enjoying getting my money organised. I love the little savings spaces for short and longer term savings, in separate pots. I have just set up a bills pot so, It pulls the set amount on my payday to cover all of my bills no matter which days they come out of my account. I don't have to give them anymore thought. i like it! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

An amazing new-age bank

A bank of the new era with much more to offer clients. The Z generation cannot be bothered with meaningless requirements of mainstream banks hence Starling becomes a reality that can attain the needs of the new generation. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Starling make managing my money easy and clear. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
