Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Excellent, flexible service that meets needs

Very impressed by the flexibility and access options available. Was a bit unsure about a bank with no physical presence, but being able to control my account from my phone E.g. lock card, etc, be notified of activity immediately, and even the simplicity through which I can find and share bank details is great and avoids needless long searches or waits on hold as I have found with legacy banks. It's generally free, easy to use, and not full of ads for services - as it should be for a current account. I would give it 10 stars for recommendation, but I do wish it were easier to pay in cheques over 500 pounds, maybe at the post office? And, sometimes there is a bit of wait through the chat system in getting feedback on a query, which means I miss the agent's reply as I have put my phone down (But at least the service is offered in app). Glad I signed up, it works well for me. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

Tremendous Bank!

Easy to set up, easy to use & the App is a doddle to navigate - I love the way I can set up saving ‘spaces’ in an instant & see them all in one place. Already recommended it to family/friends/business contacts! Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

Best UK Bank.

Full banking services with no fees for managing your cash and a very friendly mobile application. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

Impressive and generous

It's an excellent online bank, app works fantastically, breakdown of expenses, euro account and great for overseas ATM withdrawals. It's my most favourite bank of all. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

Trustworthy Bank

The account I have with Starling allows me additional cards for a £2 monthly fee for my children. App is easy to navigate and I feel that my money is very safe in the account Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

Visual and organised

Fantastic way to separate and keep track of my money visually. Couldn’t be without it now. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

Best bank ever!

Really quick to set up, fast friendly service at the touch of a button. No more waiting in banks for help just open the app and ask for help and they do everything they can quickly and professionally. Everything is explained in terms you understand not garbage only people with master degrees in ancient languages can read, these nothing hidden. I recommend to everyone let's face it high stree banks are dead Starling is the future Reviewed on: 30th March 2021
