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

Best bank I ever used everything in one place helpful an don’t charge you the world to uses it Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Great account

The experience with Starking has been great! Far greater than the experiences I have had with the high street banks! Keep up the good work! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Fab app

Easy to use, great layout and design Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Easily managed account

The app is simple to use and makes banking easy. Being able to use the bill payment function has made life much less complicated. It automatically holds the money needed for your bills in a separate 'pocket', no matter when your payment is due during the month, meaning your account only has available funds in it.

Great app, support, everything!

The app is amazing for budgeting. I love the spaces and the new feature to pay bills from them. The fact you can see your card details in the app and control your card is great. Also, support is very fast and easy to get hold of, and very friendly. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
