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

Excellent service

I’ve had a Starling bank account for almost two years now. When I’ve had to contact them they have always been very quick to respond and helpful in sorting out any problems I’ve had. I love that they are clear about what fees (or lack of fees) are charged when using my card abroad - it gives an open and honest vibe to banking with Starling. Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

Amazing bank

From ease of use to knowing where you stand with your money instantly, to the webchat service it’s an amazing bank and recommend to anyone Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

Great product with more to come :)

I had had enough of crazy charges from Barclays and stumbled across Starling. I like the fact i can make purchases in foreign currencies and i don’t have to pay a fee. As well as using it abroad, so far in Portugal and Dubai and I got fantastic rates. Customer service is on point and prompt. Definitely a bank for everyone, even if you don’t travel because they are transparent :) Keep up the good work :) Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

The bank of the future

I cannot express enough about how happy I am ever since I started to use starling bank account. I travel around the world for work and nothing comes close to starling banks fee-free service. I never had to call or chat or contact the customer service of my bank because I never had a problem or issue, whether I am home or abroad. Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

Simple Easy Banking

I've been with Starling a few months now and I absolutely love it. So easy to setup, easy to use, easy to seeing where you are spending. Simple and clear display on the app. Just how a bank should be. I'll be moving over our joint accounts very soon Reviewed on: 6th November 2019

Never had an issue, the very few times I've had to contact them they have always been helpful. Accepted responsibility of it was their fault Reviewed on: 6th November 2019
