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

It is so straightforward and always found the app easy to use and the latest update is even better!! The ability to create spaces and round up spending to save into a space is so helpful and should i lose my card not all my money is accessible, although when i noticed if iv lost my card it is so simple to block the card via the app. 10/10 Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

I use Starling as my main current account and it’s just so ahead of other accounts. The user experience is incredible and it’s so intuitive. Customer service is excellent - they dealt with a case of fraud so quickly for me recently. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021
