Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Great at Home and Abroad

I love how quick and easy everything to do on Starling is, from transferring money to viewing balances. The push notifications for spends/payments are so useful and being able to use the card abroad without being charged a fortune for every purchase makes travelling far less stressful. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Way ahead of the competition

Fair honest and easy banking. The app is easy to use and navigate; must be why the 'other' banks are starting to copy Starlings app features. Love the notifications, always lets you know about direct debits in advance preventing unnecessary use of your overdraught. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

So simple any one can use it!

Really simple to use, great card controls particularly like the saving tiles it’s like having lots of jam jars in the past ! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Incredibly user-friendly and sharp

Not only does Starling make banking easy, the app is beautifully designed. I especially love the Spaces feature (setting aside money has never been my strength, but this makes it easy- out of sight, out of mind!) and I love that I can view my debit card details in-app, so I'm not going through all my coat pockets to find my wallet every time I need that CVV number!

100% Satisfied

Nothing I can say that isn’t positive, I had been with my previous bank nearly 20 years and had kept asking for a contactless card but never got it. Starling is easy to use and I feel secure in my banking. Thank you. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Brilliant service always

Have been using this whilst in EU excellent so easy prompt notifications and brilliant up to date responses super safe too Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Brilliant Current Account

The current account has given me better insight and control of my money. I have been able to save thousands more since being with starling through the use of pots to cordon off money that I would normally spend. 10/10 Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A bank that cares and makes life a little less stressful

I have been with Startling for 2 years now, prior to starling i had been with a high street bank for more than 40 years. At first i was a little sceptical about what to expect, however now i seem to be using Starling for everything. The app is really easy yet very secure, it integrates nicely with both my phone and smart watch, the added security measures are seamless and international travel is now easier. A great product that has changed my opinion on banking. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Game changer

After being with starling for a few months as a second account for my spending I soon decided to switch completely. I now walk past my old bank with massive queues outside it and laugh to myself - these people don’t know what they’re missing out on! I have also saved more money with Starling’s Goals than I did with my savings ISA and I could not be happier with the service, ease and efficiency of this bank. It really is a game changer and step forward in the right direction. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

A breath of fresh air in the banking world

I true loath the way traditional banks have dragged their feet with digital banking. I loath their customer service. So finding Starling has been amazing. Everything I wanted from a bank. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
