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

A positive change for the better

I was a long time customer with a previous bank who I got fed up with and felt neglected. Starling offers a 21st century solution to banking I wish others had caught up with sooner. Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Magnificent service

Has everything I could wish for (apart from mortgages and international presence), and does it well Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Fantastic service, quick and easy.

I joined Starling in 2018 and I absolutely love the simplicity of the app. Due to the round up feature and the Spaces for saving, I've managed to put money aside to go on holiday without even trying. Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Starling Bank Amazing!

Fantastic Bank! Everything is so simple, fast and effective. Great security as well! Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

User friendly mobile bank

Quick account setup, an app that is easy to navigate, great customer support Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

More than a Bank

Other so called Banks do not compare. Great product, incredibly reliable and unlike other banks it is current. Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Flawless and easy to use.

The Starling App is so clean and filled with so many controls over your account that most banks make you wait call in to do instead. Starling truly gives you full control of your account without the need for customer support but even if you do need that support they are open 24/7. Couldn't ask for a cleaner and better bank. Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

BEST. BANK. EVER.

A hugely enjoyable experience throughout my time with this bank. I'm never leaving! They are great Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Self servicing accounts.

The app is easy to run and there are never any issues. If there is then Starling customer services are happy to help with it. Reviewed on: 12th April 2021

Easy and insightful - exactly what I expect from my bank in 2021 Reviewed on: 12th April 2021
