Starling Bank Current account reviews (27464)

The future of banking is here... Starling Bank.

The innovation and simplicity, opening and running a new Starling bank account is, quite simply light-years ahead of any traditional bank, my experience was also a lot better with Starling than with another 'new' bank, Monzo. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

The best current account

I am using it every day now, every where I go! In the UK & Abroad! The great experience is carries on! Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

No hassle banking

Opened this as a 2nd account to use on holidays abroad. Card arrived within a week and was ready to use. Used it for transactions in shops and machine cash withdrawals in Spain and all went smoothly. Card is also contactless. Love the app to as you get spending notifications straight away. What’s not to love ! Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Brilliant

Easiest way to bank, all transactions run smoothly and efficiently Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

A Smart bank for the digital age

Such a modern approach to banking from the initial signing up through the app to the real time notifications when making payments. Can’t recommend this bank enough. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

How banking should be.

Starling, making bank cool, functional, straightforward and slick. Got tired of the hassle of the standard banks, with rubbish apps and even worse online experience. Starling has none of it, it's great, easy to use, great for budgeting and saving. Good money spend catorgrising, and up to date balance. The big banks could learn alot!

Future of digital banking

I've been with starling for almost 2 years and the services are amazing that puts all the other big banks to shame. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Leaving traditional banks for dead...

The whole experience has been brilliant - from quick and painless activation, to setting up Spaces and arranging transfer of funds between Spaces & the main account. Having a Starling account has contributed to a transformation in our family finances. The traditional banks are seriously lagging behind! Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
