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

So easy with Starling

Easy and safe

Starling has been so easy to use that my fiancé has switched over all of her money into a new starling account and we have opened up a house t account. I recommend starling to everyone Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Simply swap to Starling

I’d advise anyone to switch to starling bank. With them I’ve found the customer service, security, simplicity of the app to be far better than any of the high street banks or even Monzo! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Absolutely the best

With Starling Bank there is so much flexibility. I can set up standing orders, create savings spaces, make payments to both UK & international accounts, keep track of my spending & my bills with clever in-app features & I get interest paid on my credit balances. In fact I can do all the things with my online account, & more, that I could when I had a high street bank account. I am in complete control but I know I have support if I need it.
