Review of the Starling Bank, Current Account:

Easy

The best thing about this is being able to bank a cheque by taking a photo...so simple and saves so much time. Reviewed on: 16th April 2021

Never had any issues with Starling Bank.

Never had any issues with Starling Bank. Customer service is brilliant and very knowledgeable in what they do. Definitely recommend to everyone. Reviewed on: 14th April 2024

Starling is simply the best...

As an ex-banker with over 30 years experience, I can say that this is by far and away the best current account service I've ever seen. This is made even better because we can transfer £ & € in seconds by using the parallel accounts capability. Its an excellent service, so simple to use, with all the information you need at the touch of a button Reviewed on: 14th April 2024

It’s different and better

My previous dis-connected experience with 3 other well known banks took my towards Starling. Although, my account is small, I’ve felt I’ve had information available to me at a finger tip, support when some problems arises, and most important I now don’t have to hurdle many obstacles to speak to someone.

Excellent bank

Really like the app and speed with which it updates. Spaces is a great feature that makes it a lot easier to keep track of savings and coupled with Round ups ,ages it easy to tuck money away. Reviewed on: 14th April 2024

The Starling App is excellent!

The Starling App is excellent, I can easily see what I have in my accounts, easily make payments to existing and new payees, and I get an immediate notification every time time I spend. It is also excellent for overseas payments, showing within a few minutes what I have spent in local currency and the amount in GBP and the exchange rate is good. Reviewed on: 14th April 2024

Starling is a star

No issues & feels very secure. Used abroad without a problem. Love the “spaces” for help with dividing money & not overspending. Reviewed on: 14th April 2024

Personal banking as it should be

Personal banking as it should be: clear, well thought-out app, with excellent features such as 'nearby payments' and 'request money'. 'Spaces' is such a great idea for planning and managing savings for specific purchases and also for savings. Reviewed on: 14th April 2024
