Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Life changing

Since opening my Starling account I’ve been able to save more money, be more conscious of what I spend & also use the latest technologies my high street bank accounts are NOWHERE near implementing, it seems!? I recommend Starling to everyone, and I get asked about them a lot from people who notice their super cool portrait card. I just love ‘em! Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

The best bank in uk

Be the early bird with Starling

My Starling account keeps me up to date with transaction going through my current account. It means I am in full control of my finances at all times. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

Awesome company

So easy to work with and glad I have an account Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

First time I actually recommended a bank!

I'm generally hesitant to recommend companies/products/brands to friends and family, mainly because I'd feel guilty if they're not satisfied. I did not expect much when I created an account with Starling, but I've been surprised by how everything works so seamlessly, how their customer support is genuinely available 24/7 (unlike others like revolut/monzo) and responded quickly to chat requests. Instant notifications work perfectly and they're one of the few banks that also supports Fitbit pay. It's actually the first time that I've felt a bank works seamlessly on every aspect I needed a bank account for, and I openly recommend the bank even though there's no referral system.

All in one travel toolkit

Cannot fault the account and service, used while driving across Europe and while in Azerbaijan didn't miss a beat and saved enough for a couple of extra meals out. Family members and friends have now joined and I recommend the starling account on the forum that I am a member of. I no longer need to transfer money abroad for spending and bill payment, I just go to a ATM and withdraw what I need as I need it , all without charges and at MasterCard rate. Highly recommended.

Seamless app, A1 customer service

I have nothing bad to say about this bank. The app is amazing, customer service is outstanding and the fee free foreign transactions are the cherry on the cake Reviewed on: 8th February 2019

A pleasure to use

So easy to log in, navigate and use the app. Swift resetting of login, if required and the Spaces are ingenious. Would definitely recommend. Reviewed on: 8th February 2019
