Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Just a nice easy hassle free banking experience.

I considered opening my account for a number of months with it being completely new but once I finally did I havent looked back, it will over take my usual bank now. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

A great way to manage your money

I originally opened a Starling current account because it was recommended by a friend and enabled me to use my watch to make payments. I was surprised at the speed of opening an account and how easy it is to use. The “Spaces” allows you to save money in a unique way. The graphical content in the app is informative and very useful. I now use Starling as my main method of making payments when I’m out and about on an almost daily basis. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Really easy

I've found it really easy to use. It's great that you get notified when money is spent and received. Really useful things in the marketplace Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Hassle free

Open account online submit my Documents n send on introduction video and within hour my account open Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Refreshing

Easy to do business with, modern platform and hassle free Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Best ever

No hidden fees, easy access, everything in one app Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

More customer focused

It’s a modern way of banking that is incredibly customer focused and user friendly. Set up was very easy. I was expecting the usual nightmare that comes with setting these things up. But there was no drama at all. Delightful. The app is simple, clear and easy to use. The bank minimises use of paper so even the debit card came with very little associated documentation. This is so important in this age of climate emergency. I can use the bank via my Fitbit which is really useful. Love it. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Fantastic bank

Through sheer ease of use it has my vote. No nonsense banking all at the end of your fingers. Started as a budgeting bank for me but soon realised I’m switching! Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Great idea and great service

The app is great and it's all very easy to set up. One thing that I'd like to see would be a desktop app to go with it. Using be mobile app is great and simple to use - but there's times it would be nice to access my account from a PC. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

Simplified banking

Easily set up and easy to use with frequent updates on the state of your account. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020
