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

Excellent App and Easy to Use

I've been with Startling for over 2 years and they have continuously made improvements to the services that they offer and their App. It is refreshing to have a bank that listens to its customers, is innovative and not staid like traditional banks. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A Bank that provides top quality service

I travel to Europe and Starling gives one of the best services for using my money abroad. Starling allows me to pay cheques in via a photograph on the App. Everything is very easy to do. The Starling App is easy to use. It is easy to move my money around and to set up payees on the App. I would confidently recommend Starling to anyone who is looking for a reliable and helpful bank.

AMAZING

So easy to use and understand. Best account i’ve used. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

No fuss, simple to use - brilliant

This is easy and straightforward to use, all transactions are almost immediate. Able to link current account to a Euro account, usable in Euroland. There are no hidden charges. Moved all accounts to Starling from Santander, have a current, euro and joint accounts with them. Full of praise for Starling, would definitely recommend. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Very easy to operate. Very Quick

Very helpful when I thought I was being defrauded. Put me in touch with the iffy operator who refunded my money instantly. The speed at which payments are notified meant I sorted the problem before it had crystallised. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Banking made easy.

I initially opened a Starling account because of the excellent rates when using the card overseas, but now use it for many other day to day functions largely because it is so straightforward and intuitive to use. An Excellent product. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

User-friendly and reliable

The Starling app is much more user-friendly than any other bank apps, very intuitive and full of useful options. They also react fast to fraudulent activity, which is very important for online banking. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Convenient!

Nicely designed app, easy to use and nice benefits for travel. Super happy using them as a second account. Have been tempted to put them as my primary, but lack of diverse account types hold me back Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Refreshing common sense bank.

Having experience of several banks this is the easiest I have known. From an unbelievably easy join to constant improvements and able to do everything via the app is amazing. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Perfect!

The Starling App is very well designed, user friendly, comprehensive. It’s as if the people at Starling can read your mind in terms of what you as the user want! Clear, simple and effective! So far it’s been a pleasure to deal with Starling Bank! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
