Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

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

So easy to use

I love the app. Also customer service were extremely helpful. I can't fault the app it has all the information you need and really helps you keep on top of your finances. Reviewed on: 5th March 2021

Starling Bank is definitely making money equal

Starling bank has improved my spending and the switching from nationwide I couldn’t be anymore happier! I also am able to get my little brother a starling’s ‘kite’ card for just £2 a month! Starling has really shaken up online banking in a good way. Definitely a ⭐️for starling Bank! Reviewed on: 5th March 2021

Best bank going

Starling bank do banking incredibly well. They are by far the best bank I have ever been with. Their customer service is easy to access, and the way you can analyse your spending is fantastic. I like the “spaces” feature where you can allocate money for various different things, and not have to worry about spending it. But by far the best thing is the way in which transactions are processed straight away. I don’t need to remember that I spent £30 three days ago, and therefore can’t afford the takeaway I want tonight. Reviewed on: 4th March 2021

Easy to use
