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

Best banking app

Starling makes banking so simple - shows how a bank app should work! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great online bank

Starling bank is great.. I love having two accounts on two different currencies and how easy is to transfer money between them. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

The only bank to cover everything in their App

With most banks, the online App feels like an afterthought. Even Smile is looking dated these days. Starling Bank gives me everything I could wish for in an online bank, and their App is incredibly well thought out. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Starling Bank

A great bank, highly recommended. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Early days but all good.

Garmin Pay led me to Starling Bank, not done much yet but the app is clean and stable (my current 'main' banking app is as stable as Donald Trump) & setting up the account was easy as. So far, so good. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Why is it only easy here?

Since joining Starling handling my money has never been easier, I know what I’ve got, what I’ve spent and where, all in one easy to use app. The application process was simple as was setting up a joint account. If only other companies were to follow Starlings lead, then life would be so easy! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great App and service

Initially joined as needed no extra cost debit card for use abroad but does everything I need for current account and love the way record of payment arrives almost instantly in App Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Very impressed

Loads of brilliant features, easy to use and easy to keep on track of my money. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

They do what they say on the tin!

Interest, reliability and free automatic cash dispenser transactions across the world, especially in Europe - really great for me!. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Future is now

I was an early believer in the Bank vision. I used their service as a second opinion for a while, then I made my decision to fully put my trust in them. I started receiving my salary in my Starling account. Their customers service is exceptionally good, which made fall more and more into it. I used my card abroad and was never disappointed. There was no charges not so ever for using the card for foreign currencies. All in all, it was one of my very good decisions in my life to join Starling. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
