Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

5
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

Best Bank Ever

Starling have taken all of the functionality I wanted, plus more I never knew I wanted and provided it in such a fresh way that turns conventional banking on it's head. The big boys need to watch out as Starling is coming for their business and I love it!! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Open and honest

I like Starling Bank because it's straightforward and reliable. Security is first rate and I'm not charged fees which start gradually increasing. The app is spot on and easy to use. Cash can be payed in at a Post Office. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
