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

Bringing Banking into the Digital Age

The big banks apps can be so boring and featureless. Starling makes it easy to save and manage your money more efficiently, with spaces (pots) and round up. You can easily see where and what you are spending your money on. Requesting and paying money is simple too. After being a Halifax customer for over 20 years I've converted to Starling Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best banking services experience this far

I've had the pleasure to use Starling since opening my account in September 2019. They have been amazing - great customer service, great UX design, easy to use and was recently impressed at their fast response when I lost my credit card. Keep doing what you're doing because it's working! Finally a bank I trust and enjoy dealing with. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Perfect and uncomplicated

After many years of using one bank that was becoming increasingly awkward and unfriendly with rising charges for goodness knows what, Starling bank is a breath of fresh air! The switch was totally painless and we love having all our info and balances so instantly accessible. This bank is a role model for others on how normal people want to manage their money and lives. 100% focused on making the customers lives and interactions with the bank as simple and quick as possible. Well done Starling! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
