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

Best for managing your money

Starling’s bank account and app make saving and being in control a priority and also make it really easy to do. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Completely changed my relationship with money - for the better!

I never used to have any money left at the end of the month, and would constantly dip into my savings. After joining Starling 3 years ago I’ve been able to manage my finances in a completely different way. Being notified every time money enters or leaves your account helps stay aware of your spending. And being able to keep money aside for goals has allowed me to save to much, and it’s felt so easy! Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

No complaints sums it up.

Simple and very easy to use. Never had any problems logging on either. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021
