Starling Bank Current account reviews (27453)

Service

Easy to deal with, and make the account clear and concise. Transactions are visible at a glance Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

BRILLIANT

Easy to open the account. Like the newsletter updates. Account holds lots of useful info. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Brilliant bank

Switching to Starling has been an eye opener in terms of ease of use and helpful ways to understand my spending Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Great app

I love being with Starling, the real time notifications. App is well designed and like the breakdown of my money so I know where I’m spending it. It’s great to have to foreign fees to use the card (when we could) Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Great Account

Very user friendly anywhere in the world Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Easy to use

Easy to use, flexible, lots of security and control Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Easy and convenient especially when on holidays

I like the idea of being able to use my card abroad without being charged for using it. What I was looking for for a long time. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Simple straightforward and free.

So very easy to use the app and no monthly fee on my account. When I go abroad I will be able to use my card without the charges many other banks make. The use of an overdraft at reasonable rates has proved very helpful. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Best Bank Account Uk

Best Bank Account I has and I have about 7 of the bigger banks accounts but Starling is the Best Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Simple, straight forward and LOVE the savings spaces facility!

What's not to like? No monthly charge, cash deposits at the post office, one tap transfer to my family's Starling accounts, can "hide" my savings in dedicated spaces within the app, great link in Marketplace to other providers meaning I can see my pension and my ISAs on my banking app, plus a parallel Euro account that uses the same depth card..... will be perfect once they allow me to set up a Dollar account too (sadly only available to business users at the moment but I'm hopeful!)
