Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Simply Brilliant

It just works. Works really well. Is easy to do all my dy to day banking with. If I need help I have online chat. If I need to lodge I do so at any postoffice. For everything else, its on my phone 24/7. No need to go to a physical bank branch, no need to queue, no need to mask up. Banking as it should be in the 21st century. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2021

The best Bank

This is a great bank that makes the high street banks look gready and old fashioned and dangerous. Starling Bank is secure, easy to manage and control money and very secure. Its the best of the best for customer service and upto the minute. I just love it Reviewed on: 3rd February 2021

So convenient

I love how easy it is to set up and use the Starling account. Being able to see spending categorised clearly and put money aside for different areas of spending has helped me with managing my money better as well. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2021

Makes Banking Easy

Quick and easy, seemless movement between currency accounts. HAs reinvented banking! Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

Revolutionary

I've been banking with Starling for almost 3 years... I cannot fault the service. On creation of the account a few years ago via a simple video registration, the app was user friendly, easy to send money via a primary account and use for all things online. Forward a few yrs I continue to use the app, card and services, even more so during covid with continuous services and no disruptions. I'm happy with all it has to offer, easy to review spend, set up regular payments, saving in saving space and navigate from the comfort of home. Definitely 5 star provider. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

Zero innovation after 4 years

App is so complicated, their services are basic and zero innovation. But apparently for them charging 2£ for kids account is something amazing. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

Great customer service

This is the best company I have blanked with. Both itscurrenr and Euro accounts are excellent. Money transfers abroad are quick and easy to use plus using the debit card abroad is great with real time exchange rates which are not over inflated unlike other banks. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

Really easy to manage

The easiest bank account to manage I have ever had. The app is very easy to use. They are really transparent about any issues they are facing (see their Twitter feeds, etc). So you know exactly where you are with them. I get notifications on my phone so fast it often beats the equipment in the shop, so the opportunity for fraudsters is really low. Any help from the company if there is a (rare) issue is really fast. Truly transformed banking. (And I'm an old man (ish) so am not easily impressed.). Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

Slick, simple, reliable and intuitive

Customer since 2018, can't fault the service i've received. App is quick and kept well updated. Services provided are simple and easy to use. Spaces are a big plus. Using the joint account with my partner allow for easy tracking of joint spending and saving. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

What is there not to like?

Fantastic app, great customer service, and brilliant morals, unlike most high street banks. Very happy with Starling, can’t see myself ever leaving Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021
