Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

5
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

Love it

5
Starling's easy navigation, controls and format have fundamentally changed my banking, spending and saving habits. For the first time in my life I've been able to keep a proper track on my spend. I devote funds into 'spaces' so that I can save properly. I can switch funds easily between accounts. Customer service has always been immediately available and responsive to my needs. Without a hint of irony or exaggeration, honestly Starling has actually changed my life for the better. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Innovative, quick and great!

5
So far the customer service has been amazing, and quick through the app. Using the chat function means I can carry on doing what I am doing not waiting on hold. The app is easy to use with great features, I like the way every time I spend or have income it tells me and shows immediately. That way I know exactly where I am up to. Overall great experience.

Breath of fresh air

Starling is simply a breath of fresh air compared to other “well known” banks. Everything is so streamlined and straightforward. Opening my Sterling and Euro accounts was extremely easy. Plus, the app is well-designed. What more could you want from a bank? Starling is superb! Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021
