Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Only joined a few weeks ago after this bank was shortlisted by Which Magazine, and my wife recommended that i should give it a try!

New to Starling Bank, recommendation by Which Magazine, the Kite mark guide to all types of independent reviews in my opinion, and to date thoroughly delighted with the services and recommendations that this online bank provide. I’d have no problems recommending to family and friends....... Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Silky smooth

One of the best banks to deal with. Very quick account opening without any paper fuss - got my debit card in 2 days! Also, current account that pays interest is hands down the best offer. Other big old banks have a lot to learn from Starling. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
