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

So quick and easy to sign up!

I love how easy and swift it is to open an account! The app makes life so much easier for me. The spaces are a godsend and help me budget better. My partner decided to open an account after seeing how great mine was, and we have now set up a joint account to save for our wedding! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Modern and easy to use

It was straightforward to open a Starling Bank account and move from my other current account. I can now pay in money and cheques easily (not possible with my previous account and no 'walk-in' branches near me. Starling Bank notifies me about money in and money out. Everything I've needed to do so far has been easily achieved. So pleased I changed to a modern app-based account. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
