Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

5
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

Perfect, easy banking

5
Starling sign-up is simple and it's rich with security features. I like my bank to be no nonsense and keep the features to a minimum so that I can easily do my day-to-day actions. This is the main reason why I prefer Starlight over other digital banks such as Monzo or Revolut. The feature to cash in cheques via photos is phenomenal. The customer support is also very fast in replying and sorting out my issues when compared to my past experiences with Revolut and all physical banks. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021
