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

Just brilliant!!

I moved over from Nationwide, after being with them for over 20 years, when they decided to raise their overdraft rate to 40%. Starling offered a 15% rate which was far better. I had read many reviews and there were so many satisfied people with Starling I figured I'd jump ship and switch my current account. Well I have not been disappointed at all. The app is brilliant and is such a great way to keep track of my spending. It shows me incoming and outgoing payments for the next day. I no longer need a card reader with me to set up another person if I want to transfer money. I get a notification every time I use my card. It is flawless and I couldn't be happier.... Also the bank card is so cool being a vertical design. I get people asking me what bank it is and I am happy to tell them out is Starling! Keep up the good work! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Very simple to setup. Great easy to use software which allows me to access my information quickly.
