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

Best banking app by far

The Starling app is extremely easy to use and organised. This makes it clear where documents are, removing the hassle found with other banking apps which are messy, slow, and complicated. Also, Starling notifies me of every in and out of my account, whereas other apps require a minimum amount for the user to be notified. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
