Review of the Starling Bank, Current Account:

Was great, not okay

4
Love my GBP & Euro accounts. Very professional UI, great functionalities and tools. Need more categories to private private accounts. Business account has plenty different categories. But something happened with customer support in 2021 as it is not efficient as it was before. Still waiting for responses to my emails sent to Starling in Feb & Apr 2021 (yes, 2021). In 2020 my feedback was solid 5*, but not any more. Hopefully, Starling will pick up on issues soon Reviewed on: 16th February 2022

Happy, great for holidays abroad.

Happy, We only use Starling to spend when we travel abroad as no fees. Unfortunately when I tried to change to a joint account with my wife I was informed that we couldn't, with no explanation. So our daily current account remains and Starling account remains purely for our 2 or 3 trips every year. Reviewed on: 27th August 2024
Reply from Starling Bank We're happy to know your Starling account has come in handy on your travels! Please ask your wife to get in touch with us at [email protected] and our team can take a look at the Joint Account application. Team Starling Response date: 6th September 2024

Just clean simple Banking

5
Love Starling, no messing about just clean simple banking that has never let me down. Customer service always available if I ever need them (Which as been once in 5 years), insights are useful but not intrusive like other apps and there is no feature that I do not use to make the service feel bloated. Just a really good product. Reviewed on: 25th August 2024

Great for spending abroad and keeping track!

I opened a starling account to avoid taking huge amounts of cash on holiday as the current account allows me to use my debit card the same way I would if I were at home with no transaction charges and a good exchange rate. The app is great too as it instantly notifies you when payment is approved and presents all your spending history in a clear way Reviewed on: 25th July 2024

Starling was easy to switch over from my high street bank. The saving spaces and virtual cards are a great way to help manage my monies. I was nervous about no physical branch should any issues arise, however every interaction with customer services has been seamless and dealt with swiftly. Reviewed on: 9th July 2024
