Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Simple and Refreshing

After 40 years with my old bank, my branch closed down. As my banking was now going to be online I decided to research the options out there and after reading reviews I decided on Starling. Brilliant! Easy to use, simple interface, paying in a cheque by photo or freepost, excellent! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Banking as it should be

I was hesitant at first to move to an online bank for my current account but the move was so easy. Starling app is very easy to use and has made accessing my account information so quick.. no fees abroad and at home make it a great choice. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

EVERYTHING YOU NEED FROM A BANK

Minimal, effortless & stylish. Starling Bank has everything I could need from a bank, including saving spaces and round ups, and even a FREE and EASY joint account. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Seamlessly fits into your life

With starling, I can just get on with my life. It is the first bank that has given me full access to everything that I need and even enabled me to learn how to save better because I have a direct overview to everything without having to calculate statement balances. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Brilliant Bank!

I have nothing but praise for this bank. I know my financial situation at all times. Its so easy to use. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

So easy to use!

Fantastic bank - I’ve been with them a few years now. The app is straightforward to use, there’s no hassle with branches or phone calls and you have what feels like much greater control over your money than with other banks. The transactions go through incredibly quickly too, which is always useful. They even offer euro accounts with very cheap transfer rates (the best I’ve seen). Overall, excellent, and I’ll be switching my current account to them permanently in the next year or so. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

So easy to use

I set this up for using when overseas as you do not get hit by unknown exchange rates and fees but I have come to love the app and the bank for being super easy to use and you can scan checks which has been used during the lockdowns. I have already recommended them to my friends and family so you should consider them as well :) Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Efficiency

Very easy to use app that makes banking very efficient and easy to track my money. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Amazing!

What can I say, as a new customer of Starling Bank I am so impressed as to how easy and simple using the online app is. Everything you need is there and you get confirmation when a payment comes in or goes out helping you manage your money better. Should have had an account with them long before now.
