Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Changed the way I think about money

Starling makes money clear. If I buy something on my card - it comes off my balance. There’s only one balance shown , even though some payments might technically be pending. I love the spaces. I title them so I know what to save and how often. Every bit of my money is accounted for and whatever is left is my balance. If I’m saving for an occasion and need to spend I just remove it from the saving space and spend. It’s an absolutely amazing bank. Thanks! Reviewed on: 1st February 2021

The best bank

I like the app with all its features; also there's no comission for transactions when abroad. Reviewed on: 1st February 2021

phone app is brilliant.

I had problems accessing my account while I was on holiday. Customer services were really helpful and put me on the right track to gain access. Reviewed on: 1st February 2021

The bank of the future!

Amazing bank! 10/10 would recommend! Reviewed on: 31st January 2021

Perfect service

I really like using Starling because the app is clear, quick, and easy to use. Their FAQs are relevant, and if you need to speak to someone you can do that too, without having to 'be on hold' on the phone. Their services are constantly improving, and their Connected card is an example of how they adapted to help their customers during the pandemic. I already recommend them to friends and family :-) Reviewed on: 31st January 2021

A very nimble, user friendly, and free bank.

What do you want? You want the ease of access without a compromise in security. Starling provides it free of charge. No strings. Reviewed on: 31st January 2021

Love Starling, recommended to my family

Such an easy and efficient app. Real time track of your spend, confirmed to your mobile at the time which is so reassuring. App is so easy to use, move money effortlessly to / from other accounts, and into Spaces on the app. I have recommended to family members and they are all loving it's easy functionality.

Best Digital Bank

Starling is a great bank, I have switched to them as my primary bank. The main benefit is the fact that everything can be handled easily over the app, without ever having to go to a branch and only occasionally phoning them. Reviewed on: 30th January 2021

Better banking

Absolutely super bank. The app is intuitive and useful, and help with a disputed transaction was exceptional. Love the simplicity and customer focus of all they do. Feel a truly valued customer. Reviewed on: 30th January 2021

Best Bank

It's very easy to use the app and very convenient to do everything at your fingertip rather than going to a bank branch. Reviewed on: 30th January 2021
