Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

5
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

Love this Bank

5
So happy with Starling and all the great features it has. One of the things I use most is to spaces. I love that, find it really helpful to be able to portion my money and put money to one side to pay for credit card or other bills, to save for vets fees or holidays and other special occasions. I also love being able to freeze your card if you think you’ve mislaid or lost it. I have used that a few times! Being able to copy and paste card details is also really useful when online shopping but don’t have your card to hand. Also being able to share your full account details with someone via Message, WhatsApp etc with one click comes in really handy and I use that a lot. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
