Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Easy and efficient app

Gives me all the information I need at the click of a button. Brilliant layout and images and very friendly and easy to use. Particularly good when using abroad as a debit card. Thanks! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Fast and Efficient

Everything works easily and efficiently. Very impressed with Starling, App is great, service is great. Keep it up! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Excellent user interface and functionality

So much more of a better experience than high street banks with a smoother and more personal approach, to the extent I’ve since closed all my accounts with traditional banks. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A great bank even in a pandemic circumstance

Starling has not only enabled me to easily keep track of transactions, but it has helped me save money, and budget at the worst of times. They offered support and inspiration through their newsletters and gave positive input to our financial wellbeing! I love this bank! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Starling Bank Review

It is very fast and easy to set up a current account with Starling Bank. Furthermore, the debit card is sent for free to new account openers, including free shipping. Starling also offers the possibility to set up a Euro account, joint account, and business account on its app that is easy to navigate. Communication is also of a high level as expected by a bank, and to this day I have had absolutely no issues with Starling and am very pleased and impressed by what it offers. Highly recommended.

The future of banking

Starling are definitely the future of banking. It has been so easy to set up a current account, a euro account, a joint account, connected space for our child - incredibly easy to manage all from one app. I have bemoaned the fact that I couldn't have all this at my fingertips in the past, but now I celebrate the fact that I do. Top class. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A fantastic banking experience!

Having signed up to digital banking last year, I have been really pleased with Starlings banking experience. The contactless card was a lifesaver, having been refused one by my high street bank, it came into its own when I really needed it to manage my money. I also must mention that the design simply rocks! Love the blue colourways that really stands out from the rest. The app is very easy to navigate and I can easily track what I spend and can transfer my money very quickly and fuss free. Also very impressed with their cheque depositing feature. A brilliant idea not only in these times but going forward. Excellent all round!! Highly recommend this banking company to anyone thinking of switching to digital. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
