Starling Bank Current account reviews (27425)

Instantaneous update

Brilliant mobile app. Used my card abroad and as soon as I was within Wi-Fi range I had a notification telling me how much I paid, where and how much both in foreign currencies and GBP. It's a fantastic mobile account that makes you feel in control of your money at all times. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

How banking should be

Starling have incorporated everything that should be easy in a bank account but isn't - a great app which helps you track spending, separate areas for savings, and free withdrawals abroad to name a few. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

A breath of fresh air

Haven’t got a single bad word to say. What a revelation! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Favourite account

I love this bank account because itvtexts you when you spend, it’s easy to pay money to people, I always use it abroad and get the best rate and I love how it puts all your spending into categories so it’s easy to see where your spending. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Excellent service and great communication with customers.

It's easy to use this bank and they make things stress free. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Exception change from the old school banking dross

Immediate notification of transactions. Ability to sign up without providing blood sample. Immediate round the clock customer service. Great app. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Banking (almost) made fun

Switched to Starling and never looked back. Everything is done with ease and the experience is constantly improving. This is a bank in motion. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Game changing

I’ve never felt more in control of my banking experience. Real time transactions and updates on my finances, simple and fun systems to save including “round up” options. It’s the best travel card I’ve used, and I can send money back home with ease and for pennies. I even think earn interest on my current account! It’s truly revolutionary and I’m delighted to be a Starling customer. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Great bank and making banking better

Hi really love starling bank and the fact that they seem to care more than the other big banks, love the way the app works and the way you get an up to date account balance unlike the ohmtger bank, love the way you can save with the goals and round up your spending to save that too!! All round a great account and I’m so glad I became part of it and hopefully they go from strength to strength Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Revolutionary

Had bank accounts for 40 years and have been a Starling customer for a few months. What a change! Brilliant app, compelling services and value for money. It's a competitive marketplace, please keep it up! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
