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

I love the app and the way I can create different spaces for different areas to save or spend. I like how easy it is to use and that my interest is added each month. It is so intuitive and easy to navigate. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

banking the way it should be

Straightforward no nonsense banking, paired with great technology. I couldn't be more pleased with the service, notifications for activity instantly on your mobile device. Application was safe very secure and completed from home. Slick app, card arrived in the post in two days. I have added two customers to their books since I got my account. Never written a review about a finance product in my life, what does that tell you. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
