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

Brilliant service easy to use app

As we travel a lot Starling bank has been invaluable to us because of the no foreign transaction fees. Also you get the banks exchange rate not the tourist rate. And the ability to lock your card is invaluable to prevent any fraudulent activity on your account. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
