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

Awesome bank

I have been with Starling for over a year now and have only experienced 1 problem which the employees had sorted out that very same day! Amazing! Such an easy and fun bank and I love how you can make yourself savings accounts without hassle! And how it’s so easy and quick to send and receive money. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Effortless!

An easy to use app, quick response to purchases. I don't watch the payment machine for acceptance anymore, I just feel my phone vibrate to know that it's gone through. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Better than any bank I've ever used

I have zero complaints; the app is easy to navigate, you know exactly what's coming in and going out as soon as it happens, so no lag on payments. They make it so easy to manage your money and separate out into different pots, saving for whatever you need. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Amazing service

Clean app that really makes you feel that you money is safe Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Amazingly resourceful bank

Been with starling just under a year and wish I'd have switched earlier. Super easy to you and so many features that rival all other banks! Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Fantastic Account

Fantastic current account and the app makes the experience even better. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Breath of fresh air

Banking with Starling is so easy, it groups spending together so you can visualise where you are spending your money. The spaces function and round up makes saving easy, however it’s easy to move back if needed. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

An easier way to bank

Quick to set up, easy to use and makes money management simple and interesting - love how I can create different savings pots, love the round up feature and I enjoy the category breakdown of my spending! Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

The first time I have ever felt a level of joy from a bank

As soon as I joined Starling I haven’t looked back, I took pleasure in cancelling my “high street bank” accounts and utilising all of the Starling functions. Nothing is too difficult (like banking a cheque) and the breakdown of spending is second to none in being able to budget. The instant nature of notifications as well as notifying of due payments makes my life a million times more easy. All in all, this is a bank everyone should migrate to... PS - love the colour of the card too PPS - I would never have taken the time to write a review/vote for any bank in the past - this says it all Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021

Easy to set up, a breeze to use.

Great set up process, send payments anytime. At a glance stats and good saving options. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2021
