Starling Bank Current account reviews (27453)

Accessible, easy and efficient

We dreaded to switch... We tried it once before with a different online bank and gave up due to lengthy and complicated processes. All easy peasy with Starling though. Total overview via the app, within 7 days all was done! Amazing! Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Simple and efficient

Switched from a long-standing relationship (over 40 years) with a large building society and the experience was quick, efficient and simple. Have been very impressed with the whole switch so far. Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Future of Banking

Easy to track and review my spending. I can freeze my card when I want to but most of all I love live updates to my balance. Other banks should learn from starling. Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Just so easy

Simple quick easy efficient......ie the opposite of all the large banks! Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Excellent Service

I find Starling quick, reliable and always there to answer questions Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Easy to use App

Great app, super easy to use and no fees when travelling. Amazing! High street banks take note, this is how you do it! Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Very simple

Online banking is perfect to use and I think really nice as well probably is the nicest online banking app should definitely beat monzo this time in better app Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Very easy to use, gives you great control over your account

Signed up about 12 mths ago to use on holiday but now use it more frequently and it is fast becoming a contender as my primary account. Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

A very good app for kids and adults

My dad has had a account for a long time and recently recommended it to me and I have recommended to my mates Reviewed on: 29th January 2020

Amazing

Perfect in every way - not only a solution to all the annoying issues I have found with other banks over the years - but also solves issues I wasn’t even aware of previously, which are so convenient & a much better/more customer friendly & modern way of doing things; I am almost left wondering why/whether other banks deliberately over-complicate all the things which Starling makes so quick & easy! I couldn’t imagine going back to a standard current account elsewhere - I have always found dealing with a variety of banks over the years, to always be a hassle in the past, but now after using Starling & seeing how much easier things can be with a business using common sense, based & focused entirely on customer needs, other banks seem to be stuck in the dark ages! Friendly & knowledgable customer service staff & well made banking app which is simple to use but feature-full! When I try to explain/recommend Starling to friends/family I never even know where to start as EVERYTHING is so different, making it hard to do Starling justice in my explanation & recommendation. Amazing! Reviewed on: 29th January 2020
