Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Simple and modern

Text alerts, simple fx rates, great. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Quick and easy!

Everything to do with Starling Bank has been quick and easy - from setting up the account to transferring money and spending it. A fab breath of fresh air compared to other banks I've been with. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Perfect travel debit card

Easy to open account. Easy to use app. Perfect card for travel as no additional fees Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Brilliant tech!

Love the app and functionality very easy to use and like the rounding up spending Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Not a greedy bank

Won’t charge you a million pounds for going into overdraft. Intuitive app, streamlined and smooth. Miles ahead of traditional banks. Only negative I can think of is having to post a cheque to deposit it, but that’s not a commonly occurring thing anyway. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

The way all banks should be!!

The smartphone app is fantastic and you get a notification of a payment made way before most systems in shops have authorised your payment. It's great to see where you have spent your money & on what. All my family have now opened an account with Starling & they all love it. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Astounding

What a great service these people offer. Online, opened an account with straighforward and simple process. Service is great. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Changed my relationship with banks forever.

I used to have bad money management. I was unable to open an account with the legacy banks and decided to give Starling Bank a chance. I can’t go back to an ordinary account. Starling enables me to plan for the future and has been revolutionary. I’ve recommended to all my friends and colleagues. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
