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 Bank ever

5
Ever since I made an account with them, it feels like i can manage my account with the tip of my finger! Instantly knowing what goes out and what comes in, its a game changer! With the help of its analysis i have find out where i spend more and how i can save my money! Having an option to have second and the third card to give to my family and kids to use in case of an emergency is another reason why i think they are the best at what they do!
