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

Everything you want from a bank

Everything about this bank seems to be designed with me, the customer, at the fore. I guess this should be standard but in this industry we’ve all got used to that not being the case! Such a refreshing change. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

I can do everything from my phone and its real time balance so you can see exactly what you have there and then

Easy to use great additional features in the app Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Just so easy

Could not believe how easy it was to just download to the minute statements and confirmation statements that I didn’t even know existed because I was so caught up with outdated processes from the so called established banks. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Does what it says on the tin.

Perfect. Can say no more......... Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Just Brilliant!

Had a flawless experience switching accounts from start to finish! The app is just brilliant, love the saving spaces and having everything at my fingertips. The icing on the cake is the ability to send or request payments from a simple link. Why anyone would want to bank elsewhere is beyond me! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Great service, great features!

Features like depositing a cheque via photos and the slider control for contactless payment limit make Starling stand out from the crowd (or should that be murmur)! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
