Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

5
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

A perfect bank?

Is there such a thing as a perfect bank. Before Starling Bank, NO. I've been a customer for less than a year but have received excellent customer service from Starling. I joined because of their reputation. Now I can recommend because of their reputation. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
