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 Bank for Travelling & Saving

Fantastic bank to use when travelling abroad in comparison to others e.g Monzo. Only daily caps on cash withdrawals vs. monthly. Not to mention it’s unique feature of ‘Spaces’ i.e. creating specific saving accounts for certain needs. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Fast, efficient & you always know where you are.

Been using this bank for a couple of years: I'm very impressed with how quickly I see payment or receipt of money details in my account overview, and I love that I can use it abroad with such a great exchange rate and the same fantastic speed, so I know exactly where I am financially. I've already recommended it to friends and relatives! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Perfect Banking

Everything is made clear, simple and beautiful. Couldn’t ask for more and has redefined the everyday banking experience. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great service

Absolutely no problems with Starling Bank, and they look after you by paying interest on your current account and not charging for cash withdrawals overs Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Amazing Service

When having to return home due to an emergency, we needed to use the French autoroutes for 700 miles. For some reason, the first toll station would not accept the Starling card so we paid with cash. being low on cash, I was worried that we would not have enough to get to the port. Before we reached the next toll booth, I phoned Starling to sort out the problem. The assistant was extremely helpful and she advised what needed changing on my bank app settings. By the time I arrived at the next toll station, the card worked and we had no further problems, and made it back home. If this problem had arisen with my other bank account, I seriously doubt the matter would have been resolved so quickly and efficiently. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Easy and efficient.

Simple and easy to setup and use, with no hidden costs even abroad. 24/7/365, 1 to 1, help, not just faq's like other banks. Refreshingly modern in an old fashioned banking world. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
