Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Every 20 years a new upstart gets it right.

Back in the day the birth of telephone banking was followed by Internet banks. EGG, IF bank etc was born they got it right, they understood customers, big threat to bricks branches. Instead of the big banks improving they purchased the upstarts and destroyed them. Starling reminded me of these days and I voted with my money and left the bank I was forced to be with. Excellent bank, no issues, partner followed me after a bad experience with her bank of 30 years. She now tells people to join starling. We have joint account linked too. Daughter has emergency card we can drop money in for her. Excellent all round bank. Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Great bank

Great bank, never ever had an issue Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Most accessible bank ever

Starling back is brilliant. It is so easy to access the account and the app is very self-explanatory. I love the saving spaces and how easy it is to transfer money between the spaces, but also to send money to other bank accounts. I've tried two of the online competitors as well but Starling is by far the best! Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Great Bank

I first got this card about 3 years ago to mainly use abroad because we were going to Bulgaria twice a year I was amazed at the savings we made and the fact that I had total control being able to cancel or freeze through the banking app also getting immediate texts of transactions puts your mind at rest, I then recommended it to friends and family. I also do use it at home in the UK. Most of the banks have now followed Starling with these features but it still remains that Starling lead the way Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

Banking made simple and awesome

After having issues opening a standard brick and motor current account and being turned down due to not having enough documentation and working abroad making it harder to book appointments I did a quick check online for banks and found starling bank and haven't looked back. How easy opening an account is quick and easy plus the added benefit of having a euro account works in my favour. Reviewed on: 18th April 2021

The best bank ever

I switched to Starling because during pandemic Barclays could not open accounts at all. I’m so flat I’d do this because it was the easiest bank app to use Reviewed on: 18th April 2021
