Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Amazing current account

Having experienced first-hand the pain of dealing with legacy banks, Starling is on a completely different level. It's also super exciting to see new stuff announced by them so often - Euro accounts just out! Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Give them a wirl

had no problems

The app & it's interface is easy to use. Any problems/questions customer service is always very helpful either via the app/phone Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

A bank for the digital age

I absolutely love my starling account. They make banking easy, tracking spend visual and everything is a few clicks away. So much better than the traditional banks. I'm so glad I made the switch from First Direct Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Quick

Instant access to all financials. Much faster running app than othere doing the same Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Update information

I like the Starling app. Any cash deposit is immediately sent to my phone so I can keep an eye on my balance and transactions Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Excellent user friendly bank

I joined on a whim looking for something different as I was fed up of ordinary banks. The joining process was super quick and easy. I love the instant alerts on my phone and have used it abroad many times without any issues. I’ve recommended them to three friends who have all joined too. Very pleased and so glad I joined Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Simple and efficient

Starling Bank was easy to apply for, and their response time was excellent. I love the app. Makes keeping an eye on your spending easy peasy. I also like the goals feature that allows me to have separate savings goals that I can keep an eye on. Also love the spare change saving goal, it builds up quickly without me even noticing, and, unlike actual coins, my kids can't steal it. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Best online bank

I transfer my account through the Switch Guarantee from a brick and mortar bank and Stirling were great in getting all done without a hitch. I appreciate the great features of notification on transaction use and future notification. At this point, Stirling is my main bank account. I receive my wages through the account. I wish Stirling started ages ago. I won't be looking back. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Backing With A Difference

Wow. I've been with quite a few before. By far Starling is the best. From the instant notifications to the great ready to use app. Their customer service although I've not really needed it has been great. I've already signed up 4 people to Starling. They're a bit more grown up than Monzo which I prefer. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
