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

Banking for the modern age

Starling's app and digital banking experience is simple, elegant and effective. The apple of banking if you will. Customer service has always been reliable and usually only a few minutes to get a response! I have a personal, joint and business account and it's great to be able to easily switch between them all as well as easily move money between each. The User Experience is simple and easy. Starling are the best bank in my eyes, they do exactly what it says on the tin and truly deserve the award! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
