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

Accessable

The app is easy and simple, a great way to manage money. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best online bank

Starling bank app is very user friendly, with all features of mainstream banks. Instant notifications and brilliant card control features. I use it daily and also use the card overseas when going for holidays because of excellent exchange rates and no hefty fee. I have used most other app only and mainstream banks. And Starling is by far the best app for me. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

So versatile

Love Starling bank - I use it all the time for spending when I’m in Canada with my daughter and her family. Easy to use with great exchange rates. Use it every day at home in the uk as it helps me to budget and save so easily. Really like the spaces as it makes it easy to slip money away without missing it to save for important things. three of my children have starling so it’s very easy for us to transfer money to one another. The only reason my daughter doesn’t use it is because it’s not available in Canada .. yet Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Excellent app and service

Very easy to manage money with "spaces", good authentication on online purchases and really nice UI in the app. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Great service

Fantastic bank ease of service is a must for everyone Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Still a bank but a way more fair with you and your money

A great and stable app, fair and a great customer service. Totally recommend it Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Excellent!

User-friendly, never fails, does exactly what I want it to do without any fluff or fuss. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Innovative, quick and easy to use.

Easy cheque scanning, no foreign currency charges, instant balance updates and easy transfers in a simple to see and clear phone app. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A really good bank

I don't like going into bank branches, I find the environment too formal so setting up a starling account was perfect for me, I just installed the app, took a few photos and it was pretty much done, it was really easy. I'm enjoying using the debit card to buy things online without extra foreign currency fees and find the tap to pay feature very useful in shops. Overall I like the general ethos of Starling bank, they have new progressive ideas and they just feel different to other banks. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Easy to use

I have two other bank accounts but Starling is the best app that you can navigate, and to make payments, the process is fast unlike other banks'apps, asking too many questions just to log in! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
