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

Started as a Holiday Ac

...But was blown away by the ap and whole ethos. Did the switch and now have a business a.c. too. I'm always recommending Starling to my friends and acquaintances Reviewed on: 5th November 2019

A bank for the times

We switched to Starling Bank following a flurry of terrible customer service from our "traditional high street bank". We haven't looked back since. The switch was quick and easy, and everything after that has been great. App-based banking designed from the ground up means instant notifications and real-time spending updates - no second guessing where your money is, or where its going. And when we have needed to contact their (UK-based) customer services they have understood the issue and been swift to reply. We recommend Starling Bank to all our friends and family.

Easiest. Simplest. Smartest Bank to use.

Starling Bank takes any hassle and unpredictability out of finance (local and abroad) Reviewed on: 5th November 2019

Game Changer

Changing Banking for the better and offering for overseas usage is better than its competitors Reviewed on: 5th November 2019

Amazing

Beat bank ever!!! Would recommend to everyone Reviewed on: 5th November 2019

Great bank

It’s a great bank. Notifications of payments made are done immediately. Using abroad is excellent. No charges. As banks are closing this is as good a bank as you still get help from staff though the app. Reviewed on: 5th November 2019

Simplicity and technically brilliant

Brilliant app, has been highly reliable, and all at low cost. Fabulous bank. Reviewed on: 5th November 2019

Perfect

I switched to Starling a while ago. They have never done me any wrong. They are extremely focused on customer happiness, over money. The mobile application is fantastic. Smooth, flawless, easy to use, with down to earth, but professional, and friendly 24/7 live chat. (You guys should give yourselves a break!) Cheques are be easily sent via freepost, and quickly processed. No need to have time off work to go to the bank. With a click of a button, you can set up a Euro account. Transferring money between accounts and friends etc is eeasy and quick. They have a function which allows you to just switch a button to lock your card in case you misppace it, and if you find it you can just "unlock" it! Saves ordering a new one, plastic, etc, you know the drill! They also have a saving function which, if you activate it through the application, it rounds every transaction up to the nearest pound when you use your card somewhere, and puts the rest automatically in your "savings"! This is all managed through just one application. It also splits all your transactions into sections it presumes, so you can see what you spend everything kn. For example, bills and service, shopping, eating out, travel, fuel, and so on. You can download PDFs of your account history and current straight through the application for each month. There is so much more too. It is the bank of the current era and beyond! Reviewed on: 5th November 2019
