Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Amazingly fast service

5
Live this bank, swapped after Santander locked all my accounts due to fraud, current account, savings, business and kids saver, didn't tell me, then heard nothing for almost a month and had no access to money in the meantime. As a business, this could have crucified me. My partner agreed to lend me some money, so I applied for a starling account on the Monday, had a number by Tuesday, an ecard an hour later and an actual card by Friday. Live the ease of use and knowing exactly where I am with the all. Instant notifications and login via my fingerprint. Puts santander to shame. As soon as I can I will be moving all my finances under starlings roof and have already recommended them numerous times. A no brainer! Well done Starling! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Clear, easy, fast

Starling is straightforward, easy, and fast to set up and use. I particularly loved the exceptional welcome pack. It never ceases to amaze me that a transaction beeps on my Starling app BEFORE it’s finished processing on the purchasing app. That gives me reassurance and confidence the transaction has gone through immediately. I also love the saving function from the current account. Genius. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
