Starling Bank Current account reviews (27453)

Simple and effective

Banking as it should be simple to use, efficient and effective in operation with a support team that responds quickly in a friendly and helpful manner. In other words everything I’d hoped for but never received from one of the Big Banks! Reviewed on: 1st March 2021

Yep

I’m happy to have you Starling Bank Reviewed on: 1st March 2021

More than a bank, it is a brand you can get obsessed with

Banking is SO boring - but not with Starling. I switched a year ago and won’t go back to brick-and-mortar. I love how analytical I can get about my spending, love how cool the card looks and love the design in the app! Starling seems like an approachable brand that speaks my language. Plus, Anne Boden is an absolute legend, a woman CEO who is truly inspirational! Reviewed on: 1st March 2021

Good services!

It met my expectations: serious, flexible and easy to use everywhere in Europe. Reviewed on: 1st March 2021

Ok app but difficult to use

Starling provide a current account which I have but I've struggled with a couple of things which take the shine of what otherwise is a good challenger to the high street banks. Verification when opening my account wasn't instant, Google pay setup on a wear os watch requires contacting customer services which was painful (all my other cards were set up automatically using their standard app). I find the layout and surfacing of my financial data difficult to understand using the starling app interface, in particular the wheel when you first open the app. Reviewed on: 1st March 2021

The best bank

I have been with Starling for a while and it’s excellent Reviewed on: 1st March 2021
