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

Easy to use

Completely online, and I love the fact you can make pots in side of the savings account. Love the fact you can spend abroad with no cost too! Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

I love this bank

I opened a Starling account at the beginning of the pandemic. I got an extra card which I could give to a trusted person to do my shopping. It is fantastic getting a notification straight away when there has been a transaction. I feel much happier and more on top of my finances than ever before. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021
