Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

The end of January and I am not flat broke!!

5
Primarily, I wanted an online account that would help me budget. I’ve been running spreadsheets on my bank accounts for decades and I’ve finally been able to stop! Starling does all the hard work for me, helping me manage my monthly bills and daily spending as well. For the first time since I can’t remember when, I’ve made it to the end of this notoriously long month with money in the bank. There are certainly ways to improve the app even further however and I like that I can feedback and make suggestions. Now I’m getting used to the capabilities of New Age app banking, I want to be able to do even more!! And finally, the help desk is excellent with bona fide humans, not bots! Please keep it that way!

Easy to use, hassle free, online banking

I chose to open an online current account with Starling as they had got consistently great reviews on their customer service. The application process for a current account was very straightforward and I was up and running within 48 hours. The App is clear and concise and has some great features that really allow you to keep up with your spending in real time. It evens pays a bit of interest too. An easy way to bank online with no hassle. Thoroughly recommended. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
