Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

I have had an account for a couple years and I have watched other banks fade away. When I joined Starling, I signed up through the application on my phone. It was very easy. I confirmed my identity online, with somethey help me via live chat. I can upload cheques to my account. When I am a little out of pocket, I find a few spare pennies that have been automatically saved for me with each purchase. Starling is progressive and targets the current age and that is wonderful. Older people seem to get left behind in the times. This encourages them to adapt and embrace them. It welcomes them into the new age. Reviewed on: 5th March 2021

Absolutely love this bank

Everything works well. The updates are informative but not repetitive and the mobile only aspect is just what I like I actually feel like this bank cares about me as a customer, a rare sentiment in this day and age Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best bank

I have a current, joint and kids space account with Starling. I find it easier to manage my finances and I am able to save better than before with previous banks. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best decision to move away from traditional bank

It’s so convenient. So accessible. So easy to manage my money. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

The Future of Banking

I was initially drawn in by the zero currency conversion fees whilst travelling and stayed for the innovative and futuristic way to bank. Using the app and only the app makes it so easy to use it every day and check your spending. Transferring and requesting money between friends is also extremely easy and useful.
