Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

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

Great

A great bank makes life so much easier. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Only bank that makes sense because it is so user friendly. No hassle no charges and 24/7 customer service.

Over 4 years I was looking for a bank that worked for me and not me for the bank. Just perfect Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Best bank ever

I have tried most of the "traditional" bank apps but they are still stuck with the old ideas. Cannot believe FD want a written countersign for identity from a nurse! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Excellent support

As well as having amazing ability to save and earn interest and plan the months finances, the support team are constantly available and always helpful! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

I've already recommended it to family!

Its so easy to navigate the app. So many useful ways to manage your money through the use of 'spaces'. No need to visit a branch any time you want to do something online. Its hassle free and its a banking app that can keep up with busy, modern lives. It does everything I need it to do. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Amazing!!

So glad I opened my account with Starling definitely a 10/10!! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Modern banking for a modern world.

I love the banking experience with Starling. So easy, totally immediate from notifications to moving money ie paying a friend. And great for those holidays abroad and withdrawing cash. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
