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

All round life solution!

I have a current account, joint account and business account all on the same easy to use app. I quickly move around money and I'm able to track all spending very easily. I've also never saved so much as when I've used the Spaces function. Overall it's a great banking solution that works for me! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Everything you need in a bank

Clear information, great help, fast customer service, always there and easy to use. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

A MAZE ING!!!

With traditional banks closing and those that are open are open for what seems hours that suit them having Starling at my finger tips means that I can do my banking when I want and not have a 20+mile round trip to a bank. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

First class service

Every transaction that I've carried out to date in Starling Bank has been swiftly done with reassuring levels of security. The app is a pleasure to use too. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Fantastic

The best banking app I have used. Gives great options to keep in control of your finances. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Beyond compare!

I had accounts with two high street banks. Neither get close to Starling however much they try. And they don’t even try that hard! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Great user experience

I’ve had my starling account for a couple of years and I love it - easy to use, dual euro and sterling accounts via one app. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Quick and efficient

The notification of payments in or out is great. My salary hits my account just after midnight on payday. This has not been the case with a well-known high street bank. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
