Starling Bank Current account reviews (27426)

Easiest and best account on the market

Starling curren accounts not only pay you monthly interest on your balance, but also provide real time updates of card transactions and online purchases, helping to quickly identify any fraudulent activity. Starling also notifies you once your balance drops below a certain threshold. Furthermore, it takes, at most, 3 minutes to set up an account, and 5 days to receive your card. Easily the best bank I've ever been with, with 24hr customer service via live chat or telephone. Have recommended them to friends which have also opened accounts! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Best bank experience ever

I've used other banks, even online ones. But this is the easiest, sleekest and most comfortable one to use. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Just all round great

Everything is so easy and well laid out Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

No hassle banking.

Easy to use would recommend

So easy to use very modern looking app love how I can customise my savings so I don’t forget what I’m working towards also lets me save with realising by rounding up any payments I make definitely would recommend Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Banking as it should be

I’ve a personal and now a business bank account too. So easy to use. Awesome customer service. Always helpful, friendly and quick to answer any questions I have had. Savings are easy to set up. Payments are fast, effective and easy to use. Plus no abroad fees!!! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Instant banking with excellent service

Convenient easy to use banking, which instantly reflects your transactions and balance. You can lock you card instantly from the app if it’s stolen, and my recent experience of customer service relating to the stolen card was outstanding. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Such an easy set

Such an easy setup process. Transferring money into the account was very easy . Seeing where you're money is and how it is spent is so easy via the app. Overall an up and coming bank with innovative ideas. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

38 years of bank accounts this is the best.

Everything is so easy to use with this account. I've always been poor at managing my money, overdrawn almost every month. Not any more with Startling, so much more control than any other account I've had at various banks over about 38 years. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
