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

Such a breath of fresh air

5
Ive been with Starling since the early days, but im constantly pleasantly surprised by the innovative updates popping out regularly. Theyre just leaps and bounds ahead and a dramatic change from the past. No more queues at a branch (assuming it was open), no more grumpy call centres. The offerings are great, priced competitively - euro conversions etc, and the app is just so beautifully designed and a genuine pleasure to use. When you do need to get in touch, there's a human answering within seconds on the app, and it's like chatting to a friend - and they know exactly what to do too. Reviewed on: 12th November 2019

Easy and fun to use (yes really) banking

5
I've recommended several people to Starling. It is so much better than the dross from other banks. Beautiful and easy to use app with some great features. We've gone all-in with 2 x personal accounts and a joint account. Trying to convince my employer to move to business banking too! Reviewed on: 12th November 2019

Amazing UI

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

5
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
