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

Totally satisfied

Superb App. Starling have made banking so so simple Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

OAR-summ (Order-Apply-Receive)

for the short time I've had the account, I'm really happy how easy it is to navigate through the app and pay bills. Quick, easy and fast. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Simply Perfect in every way

You know exactly where you stand form the start. The app is so easy to use and get around and you get notification updates when you receive or make a payment. I only keep my high street account to pay in cheques and transfer over and for visibility of my mortgage now. Otherwise everything else if through Starling and I don't think I'll be going back. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Great for Overseas ATM withdrawals

There's so much about my Starling account that is innovative ..... the reason I opened it was for overseas travel to avoid the extortionate charges from the bank I have been with for decades. I am now realising that Starling Bank offer a better overall product not just for ATMs on holiday. I would give them more than five stars if I could! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Fantastic no hassle banking bobon Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Easy, Excellent, On the Go

I am with one of UK's reputed bank already, but managing the account online is not so easy. Referred to Starling by one of my friend, easy setup, easy to use, app based, no blockage of cards hurdle, excellent app, instant notifications, monthly summary report awesome. Overall a very happy customer Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Bank account

Fast and easy to set the account up Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Best bank ever

Always get an instant alert once I make an expenses of which most Banks don't give me Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Brilliantly informative

You never have to guess at how your account is running. Friendly and helpful staff Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Excellent for overseas spending

Simple to use. Accepted widely. An improvement might be to allow online transaction authorisation via email or smartphone app as receiving a text message, when abroad, can be problematic. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
