Everything I need in a current account and more

5
I switched my personal current account when my previous bank reduced their banking services. This was a blessing in disguise as the features of the Starling account are far superior. The switch went so well that I also switched our joint account. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

So happy I switched

5
I had been with Halifax for years and although no particular problems I felt they were somewhat old fashioned. Also after years of loyalty there were no rewards and I felt I wanted a change. Starling was recommended and I haven't looked back. The switch process was straight forward also there's always a way to contact someone with the chat option and any queries etc I have had have been dealt with swiftly and efficiently. I have been able to add a child space easily so my little boy has his own account and card. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Starling's app is way ahead of its rivals. It is intuitive to use, practical, clearly laid out and easy to contact support if needed. I am so glad I switched. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Brilliant challenger to high st banks!

I was looking for an account to use abroad and came across starling with its foreign use offer. Opened in a breeze and was using within days. So easy and simple, can’t recommend enough. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
