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

Ease of use

5
I opened a supplementary current account with a view monitor spending. Well the account opening process was so simple, the app is fantastic, I am now considering a full switch. This is big, they’re going to be big, I’m a very loyal first direct customer and I think they are going to be toppled off the top by these guys! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great app with up to the minute details.

The main thing I like about starling bank is how easy it is to know what I have left in my account at any time. My other current account always seems to be days out of date and I can never be sure that everything I have paid or is reflected in the remaining balance. This is not the case with starling and it makes it so much easier to manage my finances. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

What a bank should be

5
Starling is what a bank should be and more...! Easy set up, straightforward switch. However my all time favourite is instant spending notifications. These are brilliant, help you keep track of your budget and you'd know straight away if something was amiss with your card. Absolutely the best bank on the market, would definitely recommend!
