Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

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

Technologically advanced Banking

Starling highly minimizes bureaucracy to open a bank account Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

reliable, helpful, featureful

I like the simplicity of Starling. Yet it offers many useful tools. Things are quick to find in the app as well. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Banking made very easy

I have found Starling very user friendly, great customer service, I have been able to manage my money better with the use of spaces and also even saved for the first time in my life due to the rounding up feature. Have recommended to many people. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

I've been with Starling for nearly a year and love the savings spaces which I've used successfully to save for my personal tax bill and https://skintdad.co.uk/skint-52-week-saving-challenge/ and which I'm now doing again this year. Thank you Starling xXx Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Reliable, transparent, pioneering banking for the modern age.

I am more in control of my money. It gives me an overview of my spending. The bank has changed my life. Giving me the power to really understand my spending habits. I cannot say enough about this bank. I am so pleased. No other high street bank seems good enough to me anymore. Pioneers of banking for the modern digital world. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
