Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Very immature bank

They block your account for any reason they can to keep your money Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

So easy

I love my Starling bank account. I’m not very good with keeping an eye on my spending but Starling bank send me a message every time I spend money which really helps me to keep in check. So happy I opened an account with them Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

It is fast and very reliable

I love how the layout the banking app has and I love how easy it is to send and receive money through the app Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Very happy customer.

I love this banking app. Very easy to use and understand. Love the instant updates on usage. Very happy customer. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Hassle free, user friendly, slick, modern banking

Over time, the Starling bank app has become my faithful money friend, my financial assistant and my trusted banking coordinator! I don’t know how I got by without it before now! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Easy

Banking made easy, easy to use app, easy transactions, great customer service Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Instant

Fast response to questions. Instant notices when the card is used. App simple and manageable Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A little bit more

I wanted a bank that would support IoT payments and found I was getting transaction notifications and interest payments. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Straight forward banking

It is an absolute joy to log on to my account and just see my account details and nothing else. No adverts, no nonsense. The app is really easy to use and it is really easy to navigate. I love the ‘Merchant’ feature, sometimes a quick reminder what you spent and where without trawling through a statement.... easy and brilliant. But so far the quick alerts on online spending are really reassuring. You get a notification for small amounts but larger ones require just a quick check on the app and your payments are made safely...... so easy...... well done Starling...... at last banking made easy. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Easy, quick and informative

Immediate response when I make purchases online. Useful analysis of monthly spending without having to search for the information. So easy to pay in cheques after years of carrying them round in my bag for weeks unable to get to the bank. I like it. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
