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

So much more open than traditional High Street banks

Having used quite a number of the big named High Street banks over the last 40+ years, this is the first bank where I feel they're not just in it for them. The customer counts. Easy of use, and of course open 24 /7 with a handy app, I had no hesitation in recommending them to 2 of my older grand children. Well done Starling, keep doing more of the same Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best decision I made in 2019

Full control and visibility of all transactions. Saves half a day a month balancing account versus statement. So easy to use, and customer service is quick to respond and helpful. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best bank experience

I have a current and a Euro account and found it very easy to setup. The app gives you a lot of information on your spending and instant alerts when you spend is very useful. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Brilliant, easy and simple

Just so simple and easy to setup and use. All banks should be like this. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Fantastic bank

So easy to interact with this bank and use my account. Banking as it should be. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Best Bank

Best Bank i really love starling it made my life easier and made baking also easier Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Easy interface and useful alerts

The banking experience as a whole was incredibly simple. Being able to open an account through the app/ online was brilliant as it was a really straightforward process. Using the app is incredibly easy and it’s really helpful having ‘spaces’ to divert savings too. Because these are areas of your current account you don’t need to worry about putting money into each of them like an ISA etc. and have the responsibilities of managing savings accounts. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Awesome banking

Tip Top Tech all the way...keep on going Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Amazing, glad I moved over

Starling Bank has been brilliant since I joined, the app offers so much for you that online apps have never really offered before including spaces, where you can open up sub folders and move money into these whilst keeping track on what you spend each month and on what. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

So user friendly

Game changing. Love how easy the app is to use and using the card abroad is a dream. It’s safe, secure and saves money. Feels like Starling are working for the customers rather than for themselves. Starling is everything I want from a bank. I hope it can maintain these high standards as it scales up. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
