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

First class

Just superb. Great features, it just works! Reviewed on: 10th November 2019

The Best

Super easy to set up an account, a near flawless app and the card arrived super quick. I adore the fact you don’t get charged fees abroad, you don’t need to inform them when you’re away and you can lock your card in the app. Reviewed on: 10th November 2019

Easy peasy

Simple to use and can keep track of all your spending so easily. Reviewed on: 10th November 2019

I love this bank

I love that the app is so user friendly. I love that I can reach a customer support person within a few minutes directly from the app. I love that I can make suggestions to be considered by the development team. Most of all, I love that I can check my balance in seconds whilst stood in the shopping queue and move money from one of my saving 'spaces' into the main account to ensure that I don't go into my overdraft. Brilliant. Reviewed on: 10th November 2019

Starling has given me new insight into how I spend money

More visibility of my daily/monthly spending has offered me new insights into how I spend my money. It's so helpful having a real-time view of my current finances. Reviewed on: 10th November 2019

Brilliant company and modern solution

Banking made simple. Superb service and app. Reviewed on: 10th November 2019

Fast and easier to manage money

The signup process took literal minutes and then I was in. I was able to connect to Google Pay even before my card arrived, letting me start using the account within 10 minutes of downloading the app. The spaces tool is super useful to help split my salary and save without even realising. Highly recommend Reviewed on: 10th November 2019

Quick to set up and user friendly

Love the instant payment notifications - in the Caribbean I was even notified of payments before signing the cheque. Also notification of direct debits 24 hours in advance helps make sure funds are available in advance. Setting up accounts was incredibly easy - on a Sunday afternoon we set up a personal account and joint account in around 15 minutes. Reviewed on: 10th November 2019

Easiest to use and best mobile banking experience

Couldn't recommend enough. Straightforward set up process, support and an all round reliable experience. Wish there were more new features targeted at personal rather than business but current offering is very good. Reviewed on: 10th November 2019

Great home and eu account

Great customer service. Great service. Very professional. Great conversion rates... All in all a winner Reviewed on: 9th November 2019
