Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Banking made simple

5
I started off using this bank as my pocket money account to keep my spending separated from my main account. I was surprised at how easy it was to open an account and to be set up and running. Everything about this bank is simple. I’ve had no problems with them and I would defo recommend anyone to get one. Upon all of this they have help me to save extra money by rounding my spending up very nice little feature that my main bank doesn’t do. I have now made the move to Starling bank as my one and only.

Starling knows what exactly customers expect and delivers on it! Starling is the only bank i've actually switched to! Reviewed on: 13th November 2019

A bank with customer (experience) at the heart of their operation

5
I started looking for an alternative to high street banks because their solutions are too broad. Along comes challenger banks, and I read a lot of reviews before diving in. I actually signed up with two providers. In almost every area, Starling came up tops. The speed of registration, speed of verification, speed I received my debit card, look and feel of the APP, ability to pay in cash at post offices etc. I simply love Starling. A bank that listens to it's customers. Reviewed on: 13th November 2019

Super slick new bank

Very impressive so far. Communication is good, and the app is excellent. Continual development is leaving the big banks behind. Reviewed on: 13th November 2019

I've never felt so good about my finances

5
I have always been a nightmare with finances - particularly with Dyscalculia (like dyslexia... but with numbers). But since switching to Starling, I've been able to see where my money's going, cut down on unnecessary spending and also put some aside for a rainy day. With its notifications of when direct debits will be taken, and instant notifications as soon as I use my cards, I don't have anymore sudden surprises. Reviewed on: 13th November 2019

Couldn't recommend Starling more!

5
I talk to everyone about Starling, it's one of the few banks to work with FitBit Pay making my life easier; they offer interest on current account bank balances which couldn't be provided by high street banks for years. Reviewed on: 13th November 2019

Easy access account
