Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Easy and reliable

5
The whole system is extremely easy to use, from looking up transaction, setting up payments to puting a card on hold until you can find it again. All cost associated with the account (eg transfer to a foreign account) are clear and not expensive. Best I have so far by a long margin Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

The best bank and app

5
Originally I got a Starling account as I was going travelling and wanted their great offer on international currency. But I stayed because of their easy to use app that lets me track my money and save it. And the quick and helpful 24hr customer service. Also the card is really pretty and they post helpful blogs and money tips. Couldn't ask for anything more. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

Refreshing bank

Banking has been stuck in the 19 th & 20 th centuries, Starling are leading the way with digital banking. To get a text to your phone each time you buy, lock a lost card and the many more useful features make the service a great experience. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021

I have this account for just over a year following a friends recommendation. I have now recommended it to my husband and daughter, both of whom have opened accounts. It’s so easy to set up and use, love the saving spaces and the control. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021
