Starling Bank Current account reviews (27402)

Beat value

What a refreshing change to the old banks. Love my Starling account, so simple to set up and use, no fees for pretty much anything and the beat value I’ve found for spending overseas. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Easy to use

Starling as been a joy. I love the app, I love how quick they are to respond to any query and I love the fact I can deposit money at any post office Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Complexity hidden for a straight forward experience

I had been struggling with RBS for months about how they don't present information instantly or reflect balances properly. The whole "account balance" versus "available balance" joke. I wanted a bank where I had control of every aspect. Did a lot of research and finally settled on Starling. The switch process was amazing and the complicated tech behind how they manage the bank is so clevery hidden behind the super clean and easy interface. I have recommended this bank to my friends and family; I am THAT impressed. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Love it

So easy to use and I love the real time notifications on what's being spent. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Simple and Awesome

Great bank..simple and easy to manage Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Best App possible!

Has allowed individuals the ability to use their mobile as payment option when they did not have that option before with their own Bank. Thanks Starling! Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Simple and easy

Lovely to use, laid out well with good interest rates. Highly recommend to anyone and have such a informative team behind it. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Simple & in control

From initial setup to everyday use the Starling current account is a breeze, simple to use & instant notifications are a feature I could not live without. You’re always in control & there are no hidden surprises. Best bank I’ve ever had. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

The future of Banking

I set up my account using my mobile phone whilst on a ferry to France. Before returning to the UK I'd received my new card details, set up Google Pay, and paid for fuel in France at the MasterCard exchange rate with no additional fees or charges. Absolutely fantastic! And ever since that day it's continued to evolve and just gets better and better. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Best bank
