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

Saver friendly

I love that they make it easy to see how you send you money in graphs so you can easily analyse your spending habits. There schemes for helping you save, such as Round up, are really helpful as well. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Transformed my relationship with money

Starling has helped me get on top of my finances in a way I've never previously managed - allowing me to pay off debts and start saving properly for the first time in years. Very intuitive app and great customer service. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

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
