Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

What a great introduction to modern banking!

I signed up for my Starling current account because of the great deal they offer on using your card overseas. I couldn’t quite believe that I had my account opened and funded within 20 minutes on a Saturday morning! Originally intended just for overseas trips, it quickly became my main account as the app is so simple to use.I’m very happy with my experience and would recommend Starling to family and friends without hesitation. A really outstanding “challenger” that benefits from not having legacy systems and processes. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

The best

The most easiest, simplest and yet has all the functions you could ever ask for in a bank. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Most reliable bank ever

Ever since I switched to Starling Bank I’ve been 100% confident in their services. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Starling brilliant

I needed a 2nd current account to separate my late mother's finances from mine but my own bank couldn't help. So I went to Starling and am so glad I did. A simple app, superb customer service and interest paid too. Absolutely 5 stars - and their relatively new to the sector. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Amazing Bank

Everyday banking without leaving your sofa! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Outstanding Bank

I have used this bank for a couple of years now with few problems. My phone recieves a reasuring ping on using the card. Great that there are Euro and Sterling accounts. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Simple or Complex - You Choose

It does exactly what I want it to do. Has remained simple to use in contrast to its major competitor (where I still have a rarely used account). Upgrade options are available but you aren’t pressured to take them. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Absolutely efficient with everything banking

Good access to variety of service. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Easy to use

Stirling provides a modern and ethical way to store money. It also makes saving much easier than a traditional bank due to the 'spaces' Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Brilliant
