Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Not clearly differentiated and weird UX

Poorly differentiated and has fallen behind other new banks. Clearly intended to be bought by a bigger company or to become a platform, neither of which have happened, so uncertain future. Reviewed on: 8th January 2020

So impressed

I have nothing but praise. Customer service is wonderful. The features are great. It’s the mature version of monzo. Reviewed on: 8th January 2020

An excellent bank

Sterling works really easily and well. Instant notifications are fantastic and it's really simple to keep tabs on incomings, outgoings and your budget. Reviewed on: 8th January 2020

Practical

Starling bank app is a well-organised and practical app. Reviewed on: 8th January 2020

Easy, reliable, no ridiculous fees.

I have banked at Coutts for years and became sick of all the charges and how difficult it was to do anything with my money or keep an eye on it. I found Starling and now have a current and business account with them which is so simple and easy to use. Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

meh

The issues around the way they treat their staff have kept me away from really utilising their services Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

Truly cares for its customers!!

I have been with Starling virtually since it opened and am extremely happy with them. I was so impressed with my personal account I opened a couple of business accounts too and the services they provide coupled with the thoroughly professional customer service is impeccable! Thank you, Starling - you are what I and probably millions of others have been waiting for! Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

Everything that is expected from current account

Clear and transparent management of money, user-friendly interface and full protection of savings Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

Simple and easy

One of the easiest and fastest ways to open a bank account is to choose Starling Bank. Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

Best bank account I have ever had! And I have tried a few!

Great design, great customer service. Easy to open, no fees, no waiting time. What else can I ask for? Waiting for more investment products! Reviewed on: 7th January 2020
