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

Excellent, easy to use App.

The Bank puts you in control. Easy to use App. l've recommended 2 people to Starling who are using the Bank as well. No queuing up for ages to get served, do it all in the App. Excellent. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Essy

Very easy and transparent. Clear on-line interface Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

A breath of fresh air

Opened a personal account last year and am impressed with both the speed and efficiency of opening and how the account operates - especially the fact that there are no additional charges levied when using the debit card abroad! Simple, straightforward and hassle free! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best way to save for different things

Starling makes it so easy to save for different things using Spaces, little individual money pots. Adding a title and photo to each space is a great incentive and reminder to put money in each week. I especially like the fact that your spending money is kept separate, making it easy to see what you have available, without dipping into your savings. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Refreshing Banking Experience

Refreshing Banking Experience, started off with current account and then opened up a joint account which was very easy. Instant information about spending is a real winner. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Simple and straightforward

Easy to open, easy to use, love the “immediacy” of transactions pinging up on my phone and helps me keep track of my spending. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Impressed

I am impressed with the ease of use of the app and the forward thinking of this bank. The regular newsletter is always full of information. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great for travel

Excellent if you travel a lot. Very easy to use. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Modern clean the future

What an amazing bank, easy to use, super cool, on demand notifications, easily contactable customer service. Best switch I ever did Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Banking how it should be.

Fantastic bank with slick easy to use app. Brilliant inventive features which stand it out. Most high street banks are starting to catch up now which is great. Much preferred to monzo or similar as it has proper banking features such as an overdraft or loan function. Really great cant recommend enough. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
