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

Perfect

It’s quick to set up, easy to use and perfect for keeping track of my expenses. Just love it Reviewed on: 12th January 2020

Smart, loyal and quick!

Super easy to open an account, very intelligent in notification and user friendly mobile app. Super easy to exchange into Euros and beautiful customer service. I love it and stay with it. A Few areas to improve like online account management, generating pdf statements, Euro notes withdrawals and then it would be the best in the UK. Reviewed on: 12th January 2020

Banking made simple

Easy to set up, easy to use and everything is instant. Blows traditional banking way out of the water. While my premium banking account with Lloyds are dropping there savings account interest to 0.02% I get interest at 0.5% on the first £ in my starling account Reviewed on: 12th January 2020

Very good easy switch and maintain

Smart easy way to switch and maintain your own money Reviewed on: 12th January 2020

Easy, straightforward, clear

Easy to set up, easy to set goals and save money instantly with vaults. Great bank, great app. Reviewed on: 12th January 2020

Intuitive smart account that removes money anxieties

Have been using Starling’s current account for about 3 months and it’s been so... calming! I know where every penny is going - or about to go and realised I overcommit to many things. The Goals element remove so much hassle and worry about budgeting. I have been rather evangelical about this account and have been recommending to work colleagues, friends and family... brilliant product with smart features. Reviewed on: 12th January 2020

Everything is so easy.

Imagine being able to open a bank account from your own bed! That’s how easy this was. The goal option is great and whilst it’s not a huge draw, it makes a nice little pit over time. The instant notification is always great and the app itself is clear, concise and simple to use. I can’t recommend this enough. Reviewed on: 12th January 2020

Spending made simple

Does what it says on the tin! Easy to control your own money Reviewed on: 12th January 2020

Works really well and super easy to use

Love the app from the sign up process to actual daily use. Super easy and intuitive. The spending categorisation is really useful for knowing where and what you are spending your money on. Also there are ultra low fees for making foreign payments and withdrawals are fee free. Was a bit hesitant signing up but now a love it and they can teach the old baks a few new tricks. A very happy user. Reviewed on: 12th January 2020

The Starling account has transformed my trips abroad

The flexibility of being able to move Monet around between Sterling, Euro and US Dollars has made life much simpler. Reviewed on: 11th January 2020
