Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

A Bank that understands how a customer should be treated.

Fantastic products & easy to understand. I use it mainly for my daily purchases but seriously thinking of moving my main account with Starling as it's app is so simple to use even for a technophobe like myself. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Simple, transparent and customer-centric bank

Love Starling and their approach to banking! Customer experience is superb, same as their transparent communication and products Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

So easy!

So much easier than my previous bank, everything there where I can see it and manage it. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Easiest bank evrr

Always used high street banks before. Starling bank is like a breath of fresh air, so easy to use and keep track of my finances. Would highly recommend to everyone. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Banking at its Best!

I LOVE Starling! I have tried other online banks and they don't come close. Starling has been superb for me as I did own a second home in France. Having a Sterling and a Euro account was so easy to use! I'm moving to Ireland later this year and am excited to learn Starling will be launching there soon. I'm hoping Starling will then do competative Irish mortgages. If Starling did an easy switch that would be even better!! Keep up the good work! Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Excellent communication

As expats dividing our time between Holland and the UK, and stuck in Holland due to the pandemic, we encountered difficulties with our Bank of Scotland account. Communication with them was atrocious. We have been delighted with the ease with which we could establish an account with Starling on-line. We are highly impressed with the speed and accuracy of communication and the use of IT to keep us informed of our accounts. Everything works! Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Banking how it should be

Starling Bank has singlehandedly transformed me from a "impulse spender lacking in any control or ability to save" to someone with a healthy savings account along with multiple active saving spaces for goals and targets. This is something I have never been able to do before due to the lack of "thinking outside the box" by other banks (and me, of course). I am constantly recommending Starling to friends and family. 10/10 Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

Excellent easy to use banking

Starling is easy to open account, they have a great customer service. The app is very user friendly. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021

No hassle banking

Had an account for a few years and have had zero issues. When I lost my card it was simple to get a new one. Cannot fault them at all. Reviewed on: 17th April 2021
