Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

A game changer!

Launched later than Monzo but so much more of a full service current account and customer service is superb. This is how banking should be! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Love Starling.

Starling really helps me manage money, see where it's all gone, save for things I want to save for. Everything is super fast and easy to use in the mobile app. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Excellent

Apps brilliant, security is great. Travel benefits are excellent. If I didn’t work for a competitor company I would use them for my main banking! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Best bank ever!

They get everything right with easy access support by app or phone when you need it. The app is the best in banking and getting better all the time Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Customer First - Designed Well

Simply a great experience from the first time you setup your account. Its clear that this is a product designed for its users - they think about what you need and provide it easily. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Best by far of the Challenger Banks

Have tried others, Monzo are not bad, Revolut come next. There is always room for App development but it seems as fast as I think of something to ask for, Starling produce an update and pre-empt me. (Quite uncanny!) I have been a customer for three months. My wife opened her Account more recently and mastered the App immediately. We now have a Joint Account and are using that appropriately. It would be nice if we could edit the built in categories, but basically we are well satisfied. Thank you STAR-ling! Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Amazing app

Amazing to use and slick design Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Sick

Easy to use, secure, reliable, convenient and stylish. Literally couldn't think of anything to improve it, have found it perfect. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
