Starling Bank Current account reviews (27453)

Best bank I've ever had

5
Hands down the most useful, easily accessible banking service I have ever used. I was a little sceptical of using a mobile only banking service but have been regularly using my account for over a year now and have no regrets. Even depositing checks have been a doddle! I still have my high street bank current account for some debts but once these are paid off at the end of 2021 I will be switching entirely to my Starling current account. Starling makes it easier to manage my money because it is so clear where everything goes. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Unrivalled in service

I joined Starling in early 2019 and I’ve never regretted the decision. They are simply unrivalled by any other legacy bank. Constantly updated and pays attention to what younger customers look for in a bank. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Opened this account just over a year ago, would highly recommend everyone switching,the app is so easy to use and excellent customer service Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Easy to use, great support

5
The tool is so easy to use. Paying friends and family is easy to do and purchasing things in foreign currencies is great because the exchange rates are the best out there. When I have had an issue with a merchant the support team at Starling have been easy to get to and they have handled the situation amazingly always looking after my interests in the matter. Also love I can create separate “Spaces” to save for important things. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
