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

Simple, easy to use with great environmental credentials too.

5
I moved away from my bank for environmental reasons and decided to give Starling a go based on their rating in that area and online reviews. I wish I'd done it years earlier. The big high Street banks need to catch up. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Amazing Banking Experience

I've been with Starling for four years now and never needed to phone the bank for anything. Everything is available within the app and the features are improving day by day, as per requirement and keeps you amazed. Keep up the good work, well done. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
