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

The Best of The Best!!!

My year with Starling Bank has helped me move with the future, which is exciting. It is the future for people who demand more from their bank as it updates in real time with my spending and saving. Updates with new features such as regular savings and easy payments come often. Starling is a secure and forward looking bank with an ambition to succeed which they show they can deliver. They offer a full banking service with security and savings. I am well impressed!! Reviewed on: 21st January 2019

Future for Banking

It alligns with everything technological in 21st century. Amazing App and in build services from Freezing the cards to buying foreign currency et all. Well ahead of other "Corporate Banks" and gives great customer satisfaction and journey. Reviewed on: 21st January 2019

Amazing Service

Starling just has got rid of everything I hated about high street banks and have built from the ground up a new solution that gives me everything I need :) Reviewed on: 21st January 2019

Amazing service and so simple

It just works. I don't have to wait in call centre queues to just administer my account - everything is at the palm of your hand! Reviewed on: 21st January 2019

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
