Review of the Starling Bank, Current Account:

From loads of old accounts to Starling Spaces...

We had a number of old accounts in our other main bank. Rather than having to manage all the different payments in and out of the five accounts we switched it all to Starling using their Spaces facility to create 'sub accounts' whcih gave us a single view and easy management of our monthly finances.

Lots going for this bank

Never had a problem. Have several pots for different savings. Card for my grandson so he has his own money and others are able to add to it. There's also a helping hand card that you can top up and give to a friend to shop for you if needed. Reviewed on: 6th March 2025

Starling makes managing my money easy.

Starling is so easy to use and to see exactly what I spend. They reply to queries promptly and also supply good advice generally about avoiding fraud and scams. The Saving Spaces help me manage my money efficiently and the fixed rate accounts are a good deal. Using my Starling card abroad is easy and avoids unnecessary bank charges. A top service!

Spaces feature is an excellent idea.

I use the Spaces feature by transferring money into them so that a direct debit is never missed. Reviewed on: 28th February 2025
