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

This bank is my absolute favourite

I love starling, everything is so easy to use, it’s really easy if you have any issues, it’s so helpful the way it breaks down your spending and it feels genuinely secure! Plus I don’t have to find the time to go into the bank because everything is online! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

How modern day banking should be

Opened a Starling account just over one year ago as my previous bank was behind the times when it came to online banking. Reviews for Starling were excellent and it appeared well suited to me. Having opened an account I immediately regretted not having done so earlier. Despite Starling being a feature packed product it remains incredibly user friendly. Would not hesitate to recommend Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Simple, intuitive, easy to bank with

Wanted an app bank that had an easy to use but powerful app, supported by security, service and flexibility. Starling has delivered that and more. Delighted with my experience over the last 2 years, really happy I chose them after much research.... Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Good in every area!

Whenever I've heard a new good thing that banks 'should' doing I feel like I check my bank (with Starling) and they are already doing it? Just really on it and genuinely providing a great service. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
