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

I am relatively new to Starling, but am so impressed with their services and how simple everything is to use. Their spaces function enables me to save and budget easily. Controls over my card far outperforms my previous bank. I’ve already recommended two family members to join! Reviewed on: 2nd April 2021

Great bank

I like that I am required to confirm purchases on line, this should be made mandatory with any type of card payment on line, and customer not present. Reviewed on: 1st April 2021
