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

Starling is a high flier

I find the app really easy to use and like the fact that I get a notification whenever I spend money! I also appreciate the round-up feature which increases my savings without me noticing. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Better than the high street by miles

I've had bank accounts with several high street banks and none match Starling for ease of use, practicalities, or the fantastic utility of the app. No better app for managing your finances. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
