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

Simple, easy and straightforward

The title pretty sums it up - nothing seems difficult with Starling! The app is a really simple interface allowing you to move and monitor your money at the touch of the screen Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Flexible and most helpful banking app

There are several features that I particularly like and use with the Starling card: spaces, the second card to give to a child to pay for food at school, the spending breakdown, the instant messages when a transaction is made on the card (especially useful when card used abroad). One feature that could be added is paying in a cheque via the app. Good luck team Starling! Keep up the good work. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Really easy to use phone app.

Only time I had need to speak to someone at the bank, in the very early days, the help & advice was excellent. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
