Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

5
Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Innovative and easy to use

5
I love Starling because my joint and personal accounts are both accessible at the touch of a button. I get notifications of transactions and can even pay using my Fitbit. The app is brilliant and I love that I can round up transactions and easily save money into customisable ‘spaces’. The transaction categories help me keep track of my spending too. All in all a great bank! Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Great customer service - quick and effective, transparent app and money flow/management, great features (e.g. “goals” - allowing you to separate your money in to pots for saving or other uses like keeping it aside for upcome payments, that’s what I do). Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
