Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Just Amazing

The best Online Banking in UK with amazing staff Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great bank and easy to use app

I love the level of information and analysis of spending/saving you get from Starling. It makes it so much easier to manage your money. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Ace

Starling Bank is really easy and safe to use, switching was a doddle and if help needed they where prompt and efficient Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Slick and smooth, with substance

Whenever talking about money I regularly recommend Starling to my friends - the app is extremely smooth and efficient to use, and having used other banks in the past it really does feel like a market leading way of managing money Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Always recommend

I always recommend starling to family and friends. I find that the app is much easier to navigate than its competitors and the branding is slicker. It is very easy to keep track of spending and saving goals, my favourite feature is spaces - I like that you can view all of the spaces at once and customise the badges. I also like that you can see your card number from within the app, particularly useful when you are online shopping without your wallet to hand. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Brilliant. That is all.

Exceptional piece of technology, making life much simpler and efficient compared to the 'big banks'. I use First Direct alongside Starling and, whilst FD's customer service is second to none, the application-based banking of Starling is way in front. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

The definition of modern banking.

There are many digital "challenger" banks, but none has the simplicity or professionalism of Starling Bank. Every single aspect of their service is second to none, and using the major old banks' services constantly frustrates me now that I have seen how it can be done. UX is on point. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Nothing could be better

Easy to use, thoughtful and have never needed to ask for anything from the service team. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
