Starling Bank Current account reviews (27427)

Best bank

Easy to use, cool features and their blogs educate without jargon. Reviewed on: 12th November 2019

Changed the way I do banking.

I opened a Starling account as I was so frustrated with high street banks and how they were so restrictive. Starling made banking so much easier and instant. Reviewed on: 12th November 2019

Spot on From Start To Finish

From set up to continued use, this account has been easy and has consistently delivered with stability and online features that are defined by their simplicity. No longer a “challenger bank”, Starling is a force to be reckoned with, and I look forward to seeing what else they implement for their customers. Reviewed on: 12th November 2019

Great ethos

Straightforward to setup and run your account, I love the ethos of this bank. No branches but great customer service via email. Reviewed on: 11th November 2019

Brilliant bank

I love Starling and have been recommending all my friends! So simple to use, perfect for travelling, and tracking my spending! Reviewed on: 11th November 2019

Bad app, terrible customer service

No UX development for Android, customer service ignore conversations Reviewed on: 11th November 2019

The early bird.

Everything I need from my bank. Easy and quick to pay in at any Post Office. A straightforward clean app. No silly gimmicks. And no streamed events where staff swear like a group of adolescents. Reviewed on: 11th November 2019

Best British bank again

There’s a reason Starling has won BBB in the past and those reasons are even more true today! Reviewed on: 11th November 2019

Absolutely fabulous

Fantastic app, fantastic detail on spending, fantastic ways to save, Euro account, forthcoming USD account, instant spending notifications, future payments etc Reviewed on: 11th November 2019

Already got 3 people to switch

Been flawless for me in the 15 or so months I've been using both here and abroad. Customer service almost instant whenever I've needed as well. Reviewed on: 11th November 2019
