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

Best experience ever

4
Opening the account was seamless. This is my first account in the UK, i recently relocated to the UK. The mobile app is easy to use with a clear user friendly interface. They have also linked the account to various investment instruments and one can track their financial performance from within the app. This has been the best banking experience I’ve had in a long time. I will gladly recommend this bank to anyone I know. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021

Starling is the future of bankin

Easy set up. Love the mobile app. Saving spaces does what is says on the tin. Big selling point is the interest earned on all my money in my current account. Left my old back and haven't looked back. Reviewed on: 15th April 2021
