Starling Bank Current account reviews (27464)

Amazing

Very easy to use, extremely convenient. They really put the customer first. I highly recommend them, they're brilliant! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Helps me keep track of everything

Brilliant app, always bringing useful updates and saved me a fortune in foreign transaction fees on my first holiday since switching from first direct! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Simplicity done right

The bank operates a mobile app in which you can perform functions, such as creating savings goals to reach, that other banks are yet to implement, making it easier to save money by visibly seeing your progression towards a target. Additionally, by the bank categorising where you have spent your money each month, it enables you to make better decisions when making transactions and be able to identify sectors where you could cut back on spending throughout the month.

Best current account bank

Had a really bad view of banks until I joined Starling. Everything about them is positive from the total control of your account to really helpful staff at the end of phone call if you need any help or advice. A really modern bank with outstanding technology, way way in front of all the big banks who have now been left behind. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

The best bank!

Simply the best bank and app that there is Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Best of all the fintechs. No compromise.

I have an account with Monzo and N26, mostly to try them all. They are both good and I use them for specific transactions, but the Starling App's recent new features push it over the top. Now that I have transaction round up and super easy switch between personal and business accounts, I think it is the best in the market. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Very easy to use

It's been a pleasure using the app and it has never been easier for me to keep a track of what I'm spending my money on Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Smoooth, Fast and Painless

The app is great. Sterling constantly improve its offering and the customer service is extremely fast and helpful. I love how transparent/explained things are (ie. interests on overdraft). And now that round ups have been introduced, I have no reason to go anywhere else. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Highly recommended

I have referred many friends to this bank now, for no benefit to myself. They're really excellent Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Does what it says

A great, feature rich account that does everything I need. The splitting option is great, and payments abroad are like being at home! The app is intuitive and the customer service is brilliant! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
