Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Great App and Service

top bank, great features, this is how banking should be Reviewed on: 20th January 2019

So easy to keep track of my money and using abroad with little cost is a great benefit!

Both current account and joint accounts are really straight forward to use and set up and allow me to keep track of all my spending and bills Reviewed on: 19th January 2019

Great bank, so easy and quick.

I'm off to USA in Feb, and Starling was recommended, as an alternative to travellers checks, or loads of foreign currency, so I decided to set up an account. It was great so quick and easy to do, and easy to use. Reviewed on: 19th January 2019

Great account, no unfair charges

Love the instant notifications on the app the fairer overdraft fees (only interest) and being able to use the debit card abroad with no extra charges. My experience with customer service team has been good overall, well done Starling! Reviewed on: 18th January 2019

Great bank to use daily and learn your spending behaviour

I wish I could also access it from my laptop.. But a part of that I'm very happy with the account. They pay interest on the money you have monthly (0.5 which is little...but my high street pays zero!) App is sleek and beautiful. Icons of spending categories are beautiful and are great for a person like me who is very visual. Reviewed on: 17th January 2019

Seamless and intuitive

I love my turquoise card. I use it everywhere, know exactly what’s in my financial past and my financial future, and all so effortless. Absolutely a fan. Reviewed on: 17th January 2019

Best bank I've been with

And I've been with a few! Now I'm with Starling I wouldn't use anyone else and have moved all of my personal and business accounts over to them. Reviewed on: 17th January 2019

Everyone has time for real-time

A modern mobile bank for the modern digital age. Gone are the days (and days!) of 'pending' transactions over the weekend so you have no idea how much money you've actually got. No more horrible flimsy 'card readers' to authenticate with. The whole experience has been frictionless for me so far, and I feel like I'm along for the ride already. Cheers Starling, keep it up! Reviewed on: 17th January 2019

This is how banking should look

In simple words it’s how all UK banks should work, just perfection so far I had few currrent accounts and Starling is the most Modern and Easiest Bank I have used so far. Try it yourself im sure you won’t regret it. It’s free with few clicks Reviewed on: 16th January 2019

Easy to use

Brilliant. Been using them a little over a month. No issues. Everything is very clear, nice and easy to open the account. Arranged overdraft fees have such small charges. Love that everything all notifications and everything are in actual real time. The interest earned I've also found is actually better than the high street banks. The only reason I still have my high street bank is the blue rewards, coz I basically get 3 quid a month for nothing from them. Would have moved fully to starling I'd it wasn't for that. But I just get my blue rewards and move almost everything to starling because it is just better and easier to use Reviewed on: 16th January 2019
