Starling Bank Current account reviews (27464)

Very great interface with the banking app, visually impressive and reasonably reliable.

Starling has overall been a very good banking experience, the management options on the card for my personal account are amazing and so easy to access. I am currently working abroad and my Lloyds account has managed to crash on my phone and lock me out of the account, but starling has made it so I can still manage to execute banking while I am out here. Perfect for when I desperately needed it, which is why it wins my vote. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Never looking back!

I switched to Starling in 2019 - why didn’t I do it sooner?! Slick, easy-to-use app, fast and friendly customer service, and features that have made me better with money. Couldn’t sing higher praises for Starling! Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Brilliant bank!

I have recommended Starling to countless friends. They make saving and budgeting much easier by showing your balance in real time, including foreign transactions. I also love their round-up saving tool and saving spaces where you can set goals. Customer service is always qood. Quite simply a brilliant bank! Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Initially used for travel.

I joined Starling Bank as a customer a 4 years ago when travelling Canada celebrating my 60th and, and was extremely satisfied and happy with their service. I have seen them grow and expand and I really appreciate their services with their genuine interest in the customer. I am also impressed with the lighting speed of transactions and solutions provided to the ever changing face of modern banking. The Starling app is so easy to use and everything I need is at my fingertips. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

It is like switching from a Nokia 3210 to an iPhone.

You’ll literally never even consider going back to a high street bank. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Brilliant banking made so easy from mobile device

I switched to starling 6 months ago and I am so pleased with my account. I am able to do everything within the app and it’s so easy to use. My partner has switched now too and can’t believe we didn’t do it before Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Starling is a great bank with so many great innovative features - it makes it so easy to save money and see where you are spending mosy Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Easy to navigate

Starling was so easy to set up, I set up 2 accounts during the beginning of lockdown - a personal current account and a joint account. Theres 24/7 support, help pages, 'spaces' for organised savings, notifications on spending, categorising and so much more. The best bank I've experienced. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021
