Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Puts high street banks to shame

Since switching my current account from a major banking group to Starling, it just goes to show that the big high street banks are money grabbing systems who care nothing about individuals on the lower end of the salary scale. Starling have finally put my mind at rest regarding banking systems and made me realise that not all banks are out there to squeeze you dry. All the major high street banks can learn a lot from these guys but hopefully soon it’ll be too late for them to realise the huge mistakes they’ve made over the decades, in their treatment of those who struggle to survive on low salaries.

The future of banking...

I opened a starling current account and had it added to my apple wallet in less time it takes to boil a kettle! Fee free FX, credit interest, easy savings options and real time spend information via the intuitive app marks Starling apart from the incumbent banking offerings. The future of banking....

The best bank I've ever been with

Starling seem to understand the wants of the average person. Its refreshing to see a bank that listens to you and have so many features that other banks seem to think need paying for. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Simple Account but loads of features

The facility of having immediate notification of each and every transaction which goes through the account as it happens provides excellent reassurance. The exchange rates provided for overseas transactions are the most competitive I have seen in a bank account and no charges for ATM withdrawals overseas. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Easy stress free

Opened this account from their reviews and recommendations from others. So easy to do from the comfort of your own home. Card arrived 4 days later. Can set saving goals and add or take away from it if needed. 100% recommend this online bank. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

The best Banker ever I had in life

I love digital way or doing. I applied for an account when they were testing the service their service. I got my account opened with lot of features already onboard so it's way more than expectations. Customer care is amazing, dont meed to wait in call to hear the frustrating message your important lile other banks . Just open and start a chat, boom instant reply and solved the queries in few minutes. Transfers, managing cards, payments, goals, handling funds and much much more. Im very happy customer of Starling and love their work and innovation. Kudos to the entire team, my best wishes for them to receive this award. In one line if I want to say about the bank "Starling always delivers more than customer s expectations" Thanks, Vidhya Sagar Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
