Starling Bank Current account reviews (27403)

Easy & Convenient

5
Everything from opening your account, transferring money or managing your spending is easy and convenient with the app. Customer support is very responsive as well and that’s exceptionally important for a digital app-only bank, but I’ve felt that Starling not only matches but exceeds my expectation of other banks with physical branches. Recent addition of depositing money through Post Office is a nice touch. Reviewed on: 13th January 2019

Digital Is Now

We have all seen the closure of traditional bank branches, but the time for digital finance is now. Deposit your cash conveniently at the Post Office, instant transaction alerts, and an easy user interface means I have already recommended Starling to friends and colleagues alike.
