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

Banking with Starling make me happy. I save more than ever before thanks to their round-up feature and my money is safe as nobody can hack into my account thanks to everything being controlled by an app on my mobile instead of an online browser. Reviewed on: 7th January 2022
