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

Seamless mobile & Internet banking

5
I chose Starling after years of dealing with branch-based banks. With the branches all closing, I needed a bank with properly integrated mobile and Internet services. Starling has met my needs extremely well. Onboarding was easy and services operate reliably and at lightning speed. When contacting customer service, response has been prompt and effective.
