Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

5
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

I needed to find a new bank when my old one closed all current accounts. Read up on Starling and took the plunge. So happy I did. They’ve been brilliant. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

An amazingly simple and brilliant app.

As someone who has ADHD and possible dyscalculia, both of which can make managing finances extremely difficult not to mention stressful, this app has transformed my relationship with my salary. Before, I hoarded or splurged. This helps me know exactly what I have, where my savings are, where my money has been spent - and allows me to spend without anxiety, too. I can't recommend this app enough, especially for neurodiverse people. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
