Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Great bank

Very easy to use. Everything you need on the app. Much more up to date then any other bank. You can even pay a cheque in on the app. How good is that Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Won over

Was a little sceptical at first but opened an account and impressed with the service and ease of use. Can see this winning a lot more people over. Even offer a small overdraft facility at a fraction of the charges levied by the big banks. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Straightforward and innovative

Had no problems and am considering opening a business account. Some great ideas like spaces and everything works. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Perfect for busy living!

Simple but complete banking in my pocket at all times Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Flexible, responsive and replete with usful features

I am very impressed with my experience (3 months so far). The account is flexible and responsive through the App and minor problems have been sorted very quickly by Starling staff. I frequently make on-line purchases in Euros and the Euro add-on is extremely useful and economical as it does away with the expensive per-transaction foreign currency fees of my other banks. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Really easy to use

Services and app is really awesome. Just they don’t have a physical bank that’s all. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Banking as it should be

I don't want a bank manager or to replicate the past. Instead, I want a bank that works the way my life does. And that is Starling. An intuitive interface, clean design and with the information I need to manage my money to hand. Being able to see who I am paying gives me the confidence it isn't a scam or I have mistyped. And 3D Secure implemented in a way that works - clearly explained authorisation within the app. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Retired

When I retired I felt that my previous bank lost interest in me. That's when I transferred to Sterling. What difference it was, I wished I had done it earlier. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Absolutely fantastic

So simple it’s frightening. Not for me, and not for you. For the big banks including HSBC which I left to join. Easy to use, great customer service, a fantastic app. It’s been a fantastic year with my new bank. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Modern yet as reliable as trad banks

Gives the impression of a solid, stable, well managed organisation with a sensible, balanced product range. A pleasure to deal with. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021
