Starling Bank Current account reviews (27463)

Easiest account ever

Without a doubt the best experience setting up and using an account. In an age where everything is going digital anyway it is super easy to navigate, the post office deposits mean far more ‘branches’ than other banks and the fee less overseas transaction was a real draw for us! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Fantastically easy

It’s obvious why businesses are targeting metrics like net easy score these days. Having experienced the ease of setting up and using an account with Starling, it’s clear to me just how needlessly complex traditional banking really is. I can’t say whether all online banks are this good but Starling certainly are. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Fantastic

Fantastically easy to set up. Fast transactions, loads of buckets to separate my money. Awesome Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Easy to get the app and join once you have it’s a doddle to use Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Love the layout of the app!

It’s so easy to use the app! It’s easy to see where your money is spent and I love the money pot features! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

No fuss easy to use account

Easy to set up and use, great app. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Brilliant way to keep track of your money

Starling helps me to monitor my spending, being able to see at any time where I'm spending helps me stay on budget. I can easily monitor how much I spend on meals out, clothes, beauty products as well as groceries. I feel so much in control of my spending and saving. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Highly recommended

My switch to Starling was efficiently handled and without drama. Their security, based on a combination of fingerprint and audio video technology, is great and I particularly like their notifications - impending and actual transactions. Oh, and they give interest too! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Starling everything at your fingertips fabulous

Easy to use platform. All questions covered. No messing service Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Positive and forward thinking.

I was sick of staring at a clutter of needless figures everytime I opened my old banking app. I saw the Starling bank as on TV, downloaded the app, opened the ACC with a couple of pounds and navigated the app for 5 mins. Hooked! Next day I hit the switch tab and it's bye bye banking drudgery and hello to a bank acc that I enjoy using. It's so simple.....thank you...Andy Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
