Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Simple ui, brilliant service

I've had traditional Bank accounts from Lloyd's for many years, but always found online banking clunky and ineffective. Starling has a simple login with no silly 5th 3rd and last character nonsense with easy to view income and expenditure Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Gorgeous

No extra fee when you spend in abroad. This is just amazing... Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

how banks should be

this really is a super bank, I cant believe how many great features they have Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Brilliant

Everything is so simple, it's just fantastic to know where all your hard earned money is going, and where to stop spending so much, it's superb Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Faultless app, everything a bank should be.

If anything has ever annoyed you about mobile banking you can be sure that Starling Bank has thought of it. I swapped my wife and I over and haven't looked back! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Literally life changing

I know saying that a bank has been life changing sounds a bit extreme but to me it has. Before Starling I was always rubbish at budgeting for the month, forgetting this bill or that bill and then ultimately eating toast for a week! That’s all history now because I split my money in to Starlings goal pots which takes money out of your main balance and in to a saving pot which you can name them accordingly such as rent or phone bill etc, and then you can see exactly what you have for the month and spend as you please. I love it. Easy peasy set up, spend notifications - even before the cashier gives you the receipt, and round up which can round up your purchase spend to the nearest pound and put it in to a separate pot. Excellent customer service too. Thank you Starling and keep up the excellent work! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

First time I've ever recommended a bank to friends and family!

Fantastic app, excellent customer service, and great to be able to use my card abroad without charges. I opened one account for starters to test it out, and now have two current accounts (including a joint account) and a Euro account, and I will start using my new business account soon. My partner has also opened a current account, as have many of my friends to whom I have recommended Starling. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

The bank I have been waiting for

Love the app. Perfect exchange rate abroad. Saving pots are a great idea to save for goals. Easy to pay friends or request payment. Super easy bank to be with, customer service is great. Will never go with a different bank! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Simply Brilliant

Has made me better with money in only 3 months. Brilliant! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Easy and straight forward.

Never had any problems. Euro account has been a great option for me as I receive funds in euro. I travel there on a regular basis. It makes my life easier. A web access would be great. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
