Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Does everything I need from a bank.

Simple, quick and efficient account setup with an optional overdraft. Interest bearing account with no charges, which is a rarity these days. I have not found any fault with the account setup, maintenance or daily use. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Easy to use

Brilliant for people who travel abroad simple to use and very good exchange rates at no comission Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Wonderfully simple

Great service, great app 100% sensible Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Amazing performance from anywhere

I use Starling Bank from inside and outside EU and have immediate results either transferring funds or payments in Hotels and shops. Customer support is there if needed . My expenditure is recorded in the app - altogether an amazing banking experience Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Very happy so far.

Any other banking experience feels like it's from the past. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Love this new way of banking..everything at your fingertips

It's so easy with Starling you can control everything through the app and it offers everything the high street does and more. I love it. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Just fantastic!

Since using this app banking has not been the same! So much functionality and cool in-app features to take advantage of. Would highly recommend to any friend. One improvement would be to add personalised cards but this is not essential and not effecting their score!! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

A 5* banking experience

Since switching to Starling in 2018 I’ve had a phenomenal experience. Their customer service is fast and responsive, I’m always given heads up if there are any issues on their end, new features and products are rolled out rapidly. After being a Halifax customer for 20 years and barely seeing any improvements in my banking experience, Starling has been a breath of fresh air. I can’t wait to to be further surprised and delighted by them in 2019. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Fast, seamless, easy and intuitive

We needed a joint current account for our social life and holiday funds and didn’t want to pay overseas commission if we went abroad. The Money Expert recommended Starling, and we were able to open individual accounts first and then create a joint account without even leaving the comfort of the sofa! It is an amazing service. We still chuckle each time one of us pays for something and we get the notification on our phones before even leaving the bar/shop/restaurant, we once times it and it took 3 seconds! I am about to transfer my own current account that I have used for many years to my personal Starling account, it’s so good Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

So simple and easy

Setting up the account was so quick and easy and using the account was even simpler. Everything is broken up into separate places and it makes managing funds so much more effective Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
