Starling Bank Current account reviews (27453)

Exactly what a bank should be

The app is easy to set up, secure but easy to use, it updates in realtime and is easy to transfer money. You can use the app to show how much you have spent in categories, shops or a time frame. Without this account I would not be able to budget and be back on track with debts. The big banks could and should learn a lot from Starling. Reviewed on: 26th January 2021

Easy to use online banking

I found Starling when looking for a card I could use abroad without high charges. I have found it easy to use on line - helpful when in need. The helping hand card has been useful in lock down and being able to manage several savings pots is great. I would throughly recommend Starling to anyone. Reviewed on: 26th January 2021

Simply excellent

It’s a frictionless experience. An app that just works. Very happy with Starling. Very happy indeed. Reviewed on: 26th January 2021

Amazing app!

I love Starling’s interface and usability so much! It’s aesthetically pleasing and has all the things needed for easy access pots and savings! Reviewed on: 26th January 2021

Super easy to use and puts the customer at the centre

LOVE my Starling account, the App is super easy to use, the navigation is great and the customer service so good at actually being able to help (rather than taking half an hour just to get on the same page about your query). Shame the interest rates have gone down, but that applies to all banks. Fully recommend - I'm still keeping my account, even though the rates have gone down. Reviewed on: 26th January 2021

Banking perfection.

Customer service is fantastic. The simplicity of the banking app is top class and so glad I switched from a high street lender wish I done it years ago. Reviewed on: 26th January 2021

Excellent service

From day one l had a starling account l have bee pleased and happy with the services Reviewed on: 26th January 2021

simple, quick and innovative

I have only recently opened my account having always used one of the more traditional institutions. However, Starling Bank provides exactly the right tools to give me confidence in what I have, records of what has happened and feedback on what and where I have spent it. And all in a mobile app! Brilliant. Reviewed on: 26th January 2021

Super Easy to use

Fantastic support and I will be making a business account work better than the old school once bigger boys. This is amazing and I have every confidence This will be the star of all banking. I hear the murmer now. Reviewed on: 26th January 2021

Amazing App, easy to navigate and extremely helpful and kind customer service

I've had a few problems (which were not the banks fault) and each time I called the customer service they were extremely kind and helpful. The app is really easy to navigate and it took me less than a hour to figure everything out, compares to other mobile banks I truely believe starling is the best one Reviewed on: 26th January 2021
