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

Great designed app

Unlike most banks the app is easy and super fast so you know exactly where you are with your money. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Simple and efficient.

The banking app is super efficient and really simple to use. On the odd occasion I have had to talk to someone I have done it via the app and that was super easy and efficient too. For someone who wants excellent service, access to all your information at the touch of a screen this is the one for you. I also have a kite card which is brilliant for keeping tabs on what is being spent by my son. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

So easy to use

I have been with Starling for almost a year now and it is by far the best bank that I have ever been with. It does all that I want and keeps me feeling safe too. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Easy to use, great app, good for travelling

The app has a simple and intuitive layout, and I also love that they do not charge foreign exchange fee when I use the card abroad. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022

Banking made easy.

Starling Bank delivers flawless features for its users. In a digital world where some features of apps could be a little difficult to understand fully, starling has clearly shown that banking is easier than ever. Quick responses, perfect UI, easy operations and banking at fingertips are some of the reasons why I believe starling is the best bank. I like the idea of managing my own money and exercise control over it whenever and wherever necessary. The only area of improvement for starling is I believe its expansion in other countries. In the end, I couldn't ask for any more from the bank. Reviewed on: 17th January 2022
