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

Great bank

Great rate of interest and easy to use Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Sensible, simple banking for busy people

I moved to Starling after 20-odd years with an old-fashioned bank, and I haven't regretted it for a second. The app is simple to use and gives me lots of scope to develop my own categories to manage my money, and gives me 'spaces' to move my cash to so that I don't spend it, without messing round sending money between accounts. The Settle Up function makes it really easy to get people to pay me back when I pick up the bill or fork out for a joint present. I would like to be able to access it through the web as well as my phone, and I am cautious about the implications of losing my phone as it's now essential to my banking, but apart from that, I am completely happy.

New way of banking

Hassle free and honest banking, wish I'd switched sooner. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Banking made simple.

Easiest app for personal banking. Always a friendly heads up of every transaction and if your short before a bill comes out, yet again they give you a warning unlike other banks. Simply fantastic. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Banking as it should be

Starling makes personal (including joint accounts) banking as it should be. Easy and secure access to your account; immediate tracking of spending and income; excellent customer service available 24/7; easy to use and effective tools for managing savings, budgetting, transferring funds; a brilliant app. Starling has transformed how I manage my money.

Excellent Service & Excellent product

As an old school banking customer, now a pensioner, I find the Starling experience to be a life, well money, changer. Simplicity of use and totally mobility make access and payments almost enjoyable. I would recommend the service to anyone young or old. My wife has an account and we also share a joint account. Now having more time to travel the free use of the service abroad is tremendous. Nothing else to say, totally satisfied, not something I thought I would ever say about a bank. Thank you. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
