Starling Bank Current account reviews (27453)

So easy, clear banking

From transferring my account, setting up new payments and direct debits I’ve been really pleased with this account. Wish I’d done it sooner! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

User friendly

I love this bank for making it orientated about what users want and need. Mainstream banks could learn so much! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Fast, reliable and user friendly

Starling was my first bank as an overseas student ! They pretty much were really helpful and thorough with the service they offer. 10/10 would recommend and there application is amazing Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Brilliant Bank

Excellent service. Very easy app to navigate. Love the “Spaces” feature. Everything is easy to do and very clear menus. Feel that it is very secure. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Simply the best bank

The Starling app is easy to use, giving all the information I need 24/7 instantly. Great bank, simple to contact, always there to answer. Highly recommended. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Superb bank for the 21st Century!

Starling is a great bank. I love the organisation of our money on the app - meaning I no longer need a monthly spreadsheet to see what we've spent. It's a perfect joint account and it's great to have a connected personal account too (especially when present buying for your other half!). It feels as though banking has finally caught up with 21st century life and demands. Brilliant work Starling, keep it up! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

My husband finally gets it

Starling app brings things I used to do on my own in an Excel right into an app. It's so much easier to get my husband on board with saving from our joint funds. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Super simple and intuitive

Everything I want is there in one place. I don’t ever have to queue up in line at a high st bank. The Spaces feature is incredible, helps budget Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Excellent and easy to use app

Due to poor credit, I found it hard to obtain a suitable account. Found Starling and they've been brilliant, so easy to use, I use the savings box, top up my savings with the round up feature and the app is so quick. Puts others to shame Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Totally brilliant

I have complete control over my card and can send money by bank transfer to a new payee very quickly. The app is amazing! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
