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

In difficult times...

When life has been so hard in the past 12 months the one thing I haven't had to worry about is banking. Starling Bank make things so easy to use yet my account feels really secure. I am always kept well informed about what is going into and out of my account. I am beginning to see other banks starting to offer things that they have clearly copied from Starling. I am very happy with my Starling account and often recommend them. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
