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

Easy banking

Effortless control of my banking, bills & investments from my phone Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Excellent

Timely updates to app to improve standard of service even more. Have recommended Starling to family and friends in the past and would continue to do so. Easy to use and have every confidence in the bank behind the app - I couldn't say that in the past for previous accounts with other banks. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Starling Bank

Our experience of using Starling Bank has been great so far and we have set up a Joint Account. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Easy

Having had to find a new account after my previous bank announced its intention to close current accounts I wanted an account with a bank not necessarily one of the usual ones. My friend had a Starling Bank account and was very enthusiastic but also tech savvy which I am not. However, the process of opening the account was very straightforward and well supported and I managed it and I am now very happy with my current account. Also some interest is added each month so my every day money is earning a little too. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Easy to understand

This account is easy to understand and the products are straightforward. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

User friendly & in control

Love starling for making keeping tabs on your account a daily habit versus something you put off and get stressed about. The spaces function is super helpful and motivating too. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
