Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Simple, straightforward

Very easy to use and understand throughout the application and after using the mobile app - love the Goals idea of sectioning off money but interest being paid on the while balance of the account Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

The best

A good all round bank best for spending abroad no charges Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Straight forward - it works!

Set up was easy - App works well - very efficient. Will look into moving my other accounts to Starling. Already recommended to a friend and they feel the same. Refreshing! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Keep an eye on your spending and save

Switched from a high street bank to get one with an app that helps us keep an eye on spending and save for a holiday. It's helped us be far more careful and we've got a pot saved towards a holiday later in the year. Would only choose these as they are a proper bank that is underwritten by the FSA just in case. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Brilliant

Exactly what I want. No hassle, no complexity, just instant banking at my fingertips. Traditional banks are behind the curve. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Innovative. Connected. Modern life compatible banking.

From the very clever use of tech in setting up an account, through to its daily use I am loving my new Starling account. So easy to use. So stylishly presented in the App, but crucially makes looking at my money interesting! Not something I thought I’d ever say. Really worth giving this a go. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Best Bank I Ever Used

Everything by Starling works so well and feels very human, while remaining competent and trustworthy. Setting up and using my account was really easy. I applied so that I could use the bank card abroad, hassle free, and will consider switching everything to Starling in the future. The app is superb and communication is excellent. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Excellent App and Services

Moving to Starling has been so easy and I love the goals you can set and how they work. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
