Starling Bank Current account reviews (27427)

Superb bank

I have a personal and joint account which is so easy to manage and although everything is done online any issues are resolved in moments and no queuing to be had either! The exchange rate from pounds to euros is brilliant when abroad. My husband and I both love the app and everything is done in real time so you know what you have spent and what you have left to spend. Absolutely recommend this banking system Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Revolutionary bank

Easily the best bank for coward thinking, customer service and helping customers manage money. The goal option has really helped me keep track of where every penny is being spent. Amazing Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Technology for the Luddite

I am not technologically savvy but registration via the App is child’s play and extremely quick and easy Their technical support is superb and everything works flawlessly My first foray into the world of online banking could not have been more straightforward to register and subsequently use 10 out of 10 in all respects and I have highly recommended Starling to all my family, friends and work colleagues Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

A new kind of current account

My experience with Starling has been fantastic since I joined 9 months ago. Setup is about as seamless as it could be and was easy to fit in around my busy work schedule as I could do it all at home over the app. The app itself feels slick and I can find all of the information that I need very quickly. The spend tracking is as good as anything else I've seen on apps and has helped me understand where my money goes. I've been able to clearly contribute to my savings targets using the 'Goals' space and I've also set up a joint account with my girlfriend (who's also a user now). On the rare occasion that I've had any issues (forgotten password, queried transaction) the customer service reps over text chat responded quickly, were capable and seemed genuinely keen to help. Finally, on top of all of this they offer a 0.5% interest rate on balances in the account. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
