Starling Bank Current account reviews (27450)

The future of banking

An app based bank that lets you create spaces to save for home improvements, holidays, new car etc, alerts you to upcoming payments due, informs you if there isn't enough funds for an upcoming payment, gives you instant notifications as you use the card for purchases, gives you an option to pay for some large transactions via a short term loan, lets you turn ATM withdrawals on and off, same with internet purchases and gambling transactions, link your card to your phone's location for added security and more. This is such a refreshing experience for me compared to my old high Street banking past. Reviewed on: 18th January 2020

Best bank account

Easy to use app, all the info you want. No fees. Debit card free to use overseas with no fees and no loading. Amazing. Reviewed on: 17th January 2020

Excellent, Intuitive Bank and App

I love Starling and have recommended it to many friends - secure, innovative banking at your fingertips. Reviewed on: 17th January 2020

A new bank acting the same as old ones.

Focus on marketing and trying to seem new when operating in the same old school way as legacy banks. Formal like old banks, focus more on their security than focusing on helping users, and poorly designed app features. Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

Amazing App!

I love how instant payments show and the fact i can use it abroad and dont pay any extra charges! Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

Best Bank Ever!!

I have been using Starting Account a year now, and it's been my day to day account, and I never had a single issue. It's been with me everywhere I go. I traveled and I used it abroad without any fees. Honesetly, Starling Bank is the best bank in the world not only in the UK. Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

Best bank!

No issues, replace lost cards super fast Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

Easiest Banking App

I was with a high street bank for years, but after switching to Starling earlier this year I feel like I am more in control of my money than ever before - when I use my card I am immediately notified, my partner and I were able to set up a joint account extremely easily, and I can compartmentalise my money instantly. I have tried Revolut and Monzo previously but neither gave me a reason to switch completely the way Starling has. I would and I have recommended Starling to many of my friends and family. Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

So smooth and simple I don't have to think about it and can just get on with my day

Would like more functionality from the Euro account though Reviewed on: 16th January 2020

All you could wish for in a bank account.
