Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

The customer counts

Starling app is so easy and straightforward to use. They really do have their customers interests at heart. Its such welcoming and user friendly experience which makes life easier unlike other banks. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Amazing!

An amazing bank, excellent online banking app. I love being able to see where my money goes and when my payments are due! Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

It's great, does everything you need

Managing your finances via an app is useful and efficient. Not having branches isn't a problem as you can deposit cash at post office branches, they have updated to allow scanning of cheques, and they even have a web platform for current accounts. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Smart,simple, efficient way of banking

I have an account with another bank and every week transfer money to Starling Travel Account as I live abroad. It is so very simple and safe and if anything negative occurs such as theft of card, I can go online and cancel its use straight away and also the only money that is lost is what’s currently on the card. once I had a problem with an ATM that I regularly use and I lost 60 US dollars. I contacted Starling directly and within 24 hours it was solved by talking to a person not a machine. I get so much reassurance from the Bank. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Continuous improvement

The bank keeps bringing new features. It clearly shows an interest in improving the quality of the products it offers and making the lives of its customers much easier day by day. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Amazing

A very pleasing bank, customer service is always ready to help. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Easy to navigate good customer service

Slick user friendly app, love the spending breakdowns. Friendly helpful customer service yhe one time I needed help. Reassuring online spending security checks. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Starling - a breath of fresh air

When other banks are inflexible and not interested in someone who wants an account without any of the nonsense, Starling Bank comes forward and embraces you, I wonder why I didn’t swap sooner. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Great for Using Abroad!

I always use my Starling account while travelling abroad, as there are 'no fees to pay'! Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Designed for the Customer

Well done. Starling is designed with the customer (of all abilities, and none!) in mind rather producing a package which we all have to conform to and assumes a degree of 'tech' knowledge. I've already recommended Starling to family and friends. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021
