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

I simply love Starling! It's so easy to use and the interface is so user-friendly, that for me it sets the new standard. It's competitors should sit up and take note of what Starling is doing or they are in danger of being left behind!! Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Wow!

Wow what a bank. The app is so easy to use and and has a really nice feel to it. You know exactly what is happening and as soon as money goes out of your account or a debit card purchase is made you receive a notification within seconds. Love the saving spaces and the new bill management space. Had concerns about changing bank but best decision I made was to go to Starling . Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
