Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

All-round Excellent

5
Everything from the app experience to payments to customer support is top-notch. Security is the most secure I’ve seen of a UK bank (and all the better for it). Payments process much quicker than anticipated, with the likes of refunds coming through the next day rather than 7 days. Customer service is always on hand to answer any queries in a swift fashion. Cannot fault Starling one bit. Reviewed on: 1st April 2021

Modern, easy and better

Honestly you might be thinking, I already have a bank account so why bother, BUT money management and tracking spending has never been easier. My favourite feature are the 'Spaces' where I've created my own sections of my bank account where I can split my money and save up for different things at the same time. It easy, it's powerful and a game changer! Just try it out, what's the worst that could happen? It's really quick and easy to apply unlike a traditional bank account so it's no stress at all.
