Starling Bank Current account reviews (27452)

Set up so easy

Had tried to open a Euro account with Barclays, only to be refused as I had the ‘wrong type’ of current account - then found Starling! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

First Class App Based Bank Account

So easy to use, track all your spending in one place, even down to the individual retailer. Easily send money to friends and relatives using the money transfer section. Just a really good all round account!! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Easiness to use

Extremely user friendly, literally 15 minutes to open an account and ready to use. Card arrives in less than a week and you can use Post Offices to deposit cash. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Easy, quick setup

So simple to open an account with and is far better than than any high st current account I have had before. Brilliant app that it simple to use and encourages saving Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Excellent service

I just like it when you get messages saying how much you used in shop i love it how you need to use video and voice messages so they know its you. Makes me sleepy better. Knowing that your money is safe Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Hassle free bank

Best bank I’ve been with, always handy getting notifications on when money is due and when money is coming in and out Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Safer banking

I love my Starling account so much. I have no need for a physical bank branch so app banking is perfect for me. 1 of my favourite features is that I get a notification before each scheduled payment & after each card transaction. Feel so much safer than with my previous bank against fraudsters. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

So easy

Brilliant experience, so far. All on line and very easy, no fuss. I even like the bank card, the speed of despatch and the envelope it was sent out in! Very clear way of keeping a check on spending. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
