Starling Bank Current account reviews (27464)

Perfection

The title says it all. BIG 6 time to learn or better - hide. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Mary Poppins account - Practically perfect in every way!

The App is so easy to use. I love being able to categorise my payments by type. The card control is superb and instant. The notifications of future payments are helpful. Adding a new payee can be done anywhere and I don't need a card reader/phone call/kidney donation etc! Money can be paid in at any Post office. I LOVE this account! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Modern, useful and clear

I find starling to be a very refreshing approach to banking. They seem to be very modern in the way that they do things. It is particularly noticeable that many of the features they offer are actually useful and interesting features. (Quite a contrast to high street banks that release rubbish features that many other banks already have and are often not something I really find useful) They were more careful when setting things up to make the account attractive whether we are at home, or abroad. Their fees and charges not only seem fair, but are very simple and clear. I am sure I could pick a point somewhere if I really tried, but it would be a drop in the ocean at the side of everything that is great about them. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
