Starling Bank Current account reviews (27450)

Simply the best for 21st century banking!

5
These guys are doing all the right things with personal banking (I can’t review the business banking as I don't have one with them) The ease of use of the app is first rate, it looks professional and makes complete sense. I found the Monzo app to be too disjointed and don’t get me started on the high street bank’s app offerings - they are beyond useless! Well done Starling and keep up the good work!

Great Bank with fantastic online app

I use my Starling Bank account for day to day expenditure. I used the card on a recent year long tour of the USA and Canada and was especially comforted by the instant message when you spend or withdraw money. No fees, no fuss just instant up to date information on my expenditure. First class service throughout. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Recommended to all my friends

I love the confirmation messages telling me when I have spent giving me reassurance that my money is safe. If my card is used I instantly know if there is a problem. Also love the goals feature letting me save for things I need without feeling the pinch. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

THE Best Bank, Ever

5
had Starling for 2 years now. Tried high street, Monzo & First Direct banks so far and this gets my vote every time. There are no downsides that I can think off. Customer support is second to none. The only bad thing that springs o mind is that the Android version needs to match the IOS version as it’s much easier to navigate. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
