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

The best card

I like this bank. Easy registration via phone in few clicks. The best rates when you travel. Better to use your Starling card in other country ATM then exchange the money in the banks. So highly recommend it. Reviewed on: 14th June 2021

Easy to use, great product, 24/7 support

The app and it's features are easy to use and meet all my needs. Support is always on hand and responds quickly. Cool spaces where I can save pots of money, set goals etc. And when travel allows, the best way to make international transactions and take money out while away. Reviewed on: 14th June 2021

Excellent

Recently joined great bank , great to deal with . Reviewed on: 14th June 2021

Consistently the better bank

I have only good things to say, everyone I have dealt with from support, they are professional and have always fixed any issue I have had. And it's still the best current account on the market, it may lack a few 'neat' features compared to other 'challenger' banks but equally I have not experienced any issues like I have had with them. Definitely leading for stability. Reviewed on: 14th June 2021
