Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Best bank ever!

I've suffered through a lot of banks (HSBC, Barclays, NatWest and also Lloyds), and after switching to Starling it's like a breath of fresh air! So so blessed to be a part of something that's constantly improving itself instead of burying its head in the sand and staying in the stone ages. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

the best bank company

hello, I just want to thank the team for the great job they're doing, everything is easy and simple, it's the best bank company in uk. kind regards Dino Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Simple, easy, straightforward

Joining Starling is quick and painless. Using the app is so easy and the addition of a 'goals' section makes saving very easy. My card arrived quickly which was great. It is also contactless. On the one occasion I have contacted the customer service team I received a quick and helpful response. Money paid in or out of the account happens instantly meaning whatever your balances says, that's what you have to spend. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Keeps me in control easily.

My favourite features are : I can immediately see what & where I’ve just spent money. Made even easier with new iPad landscape view. If I mislay my card I can put a stop on it instead of cancelling it and getting a replacement. No charges for using abroad. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Best bank going easy to use easy to navigate and the notifications on spending and receiving funds is second to none Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Brilliant 21st Century Banking

Up to date app that shows what you’re spending, when you’re spending it. Able to use your card abroad at mastercard exchange rate without fees. Who needs a branch when you can use the post office to withdraw and deposit money? Brilliant, free banking. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
