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

Mr Holl

Been with Starling Bank one year and finding it to be very user friendly. Simple and easy to understand. The way ahead Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Fantastic bank

Everything is on your app that you need, you can go on live chat or email and even give them a call, which they answer very quickly, which is a bonus, the help is brilliant. Also no queuing at the bank as everything is done at the post office, any post office. Cheques are done by photo on your phone or sent by a freepost address. So glad I found this bank. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Setting new standards in banking

Great value exchange rates. Transactions show instantly on your account. The shopping card introduced in the first lockdown was such a simple but fabulous service to offer-all with no fuss and quickly which sums up dealing with Starling. A fabulous bank. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Streamlined, secure and ethical

I was searching for an ethical bank. Starling fits the bill. I am impressed by the speed of notifications. You buy something and within minutes you have received a text confirming what has been spent. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Easiest banking ever

Brilliant o/l banking service, instant validation of spending via app, complete control of your finances. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Secure

Easy to use and as you can see every transaction instantly, very secure. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Hassle free banking

Having worked for a high street bank for many years I understand what people want and in my opinion Staring have combined everything and created the best banking experience you could ask for. Available 24/7, not that I ever really need to contact them because I’ve never really had any issues. That’s the sign of a good bank. Thank you Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

So convenient

This bank is really convenient to use and has taken away the stodgy formalities still held by traditional banks. I also like the quick set up of projects saving section and being able to give a limited access card to others. Love it Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Very easy to work with this bank

I am happy to be your costumer and very easy to work with you, good costumer service! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Ease of use

Friendly, helpful and so easy to use. Tells you what’s coming out of your account and when. Highly recommended. The only way to improve would be to up the cash withdrawal daily limit. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
