Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

5
Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

So happy since switching!

5
Really happy since I’ve switched banks to starling. Simple easy process and the only criticism is that I could not get authorised for an overdraft at the same level I had at previous bank right away. I will reapply in 3 months and hopefully resolve that. Otherwise a wonderful experience so far Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Absolutely the easiest and friendliest banking app

5
So easy to use. So easy to get problems solved(not that there's been many) I originally intended to temporarily use this banking app when I couldn't access my Barclays account. Soon after that decision, starling become my most used banking account so I decided to close the others. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

It’s a doddle to use and makes managing my money super easy. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Fantastic easy-to-use bank!

Starling is so handy being an online bank and their customer support is very good with quick responses without having to leave the comfort of your own home/to go out of your way to reach a high street branch. My favourite part is the 'Spaces' option in the app where you can easily divide up your money between various different goals, with the choice to add a target that encourages money-management skills.
