Starling Bank Current account reviews (27402)

Easiest banking experience ever

Took me five minutes to setup an account and I did it all from bed! Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Thank god for starling!

Starling have set the example to all high street banks. It took me minutes to open an account while in bed on a Sunday morning, the card arrived in 2 days, the app has never failed me and excites me with it’s easy ways to set up pots to save for different things and the fact all transactions are instant and can be catagarised showing me how much I’ve spent in a month on shopping or takeaways. I’ve closed my current account I’ve had for 23years as I don’t need it nor do I want it, this account has transformed how I see money, and made me think before I spend, meaning I make better choices and will never be in debt again. I’ve told so many people and they all opened an account and love it. This is how banking should be in 2018! Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

simple to use and saves me money

I use this account all the time and now know where and how I am spending. Keeping an eye on what I spend and where I now have a much better knowledge of where to save money and it is so easy to use it beats any other account I have had Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Best account ever!

It's one of the best mobile bank account out there and the app is so well designed, even the card stands out from the crowd! Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Changed my (banking) life.

Everything about Starling is pretty much how you expect a bank to be. From instant notification of transactions to saving goals. It’s all so simple but I can honestly say it’s made my life so much easier. No more having to wait 1 week for card payments to come out over Christmas, & then finding out on NYE that I’m over my OD limit. With a recent house move, the savings goals were a life saver. Setting a goal for each budget ensured i covered all expenditure with ease and didn’t dip into the stamp duty money by mistake! Even the telephone support was actually helpful (remarkable as so many call centres cause more stress) so when the house move was completing and I couldn’t get Halifax to perform extra checks when transferring £30k to my solicitor, Starling simply said “leave it with us”. I even get a grey exchange rate when I use the card abroad. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Real time banking

It’s so much easier to manage our money since we moved to starling! Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Excellent all round

Absolute joy to bank with Starling, app is wonderful to use with more features than I could have imagined before using Starling. Updates are frequent and never affect the smooth running of the app. Reviewed on: 8th December 2018

Awesome

Awesome bank and easy to use - business banking is just as good Reviewed on: 8th December 2018
