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

How banking should be done

The Starling Bank app is incredibly easy to use.. Making payments to others take seconds, far less time than when I use my other online bank account. The display is clear and simple. The bank works well with my Fitbit watch so all I need is my watch to make payments. I’ve never had a failure so far. I love it! Reviewed on: 24th January 2021
