Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Great app

I love the mobile app that shows instantly any expense, including approximate charge while abroad Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

The best bank account

This is how the banking shluld be done. Instant. Notification. On the app. Self service. Simple. Intuitive. Evolving. Quick to set up. Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

So easy to use

Starling has just been the smoothest and easy to use banking service ever. Everything is done rapidly and clearly, and the app provides lots of insight into spending, and has real-time notifications of spending. The Marketplace has started to provide additional services, and hopefully this will grow in the coming months. But it allows Starling to focus on making their app and current account great, and they are! Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Real innovative bank

Really love Starling, whish they were more popular. Love the interest paid on balance, pin reminder in the app, the app itself is amazing, the spaces where I can save for a specific goal and also the option to request money and pay to friends and family. Looking forward to seeing the bank grow! Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Awesome!

Switched everything from a legacy bank over, excellent tech, easy to use, always bringing new features, couldn’t imagine going back to what I had before Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Straight forward easy to visualise banking

Quick and easy to get going. Traditional banks have to catch up pretty soon if they don't want to get left behind. Reviewed on: 8th November 2018

Easy to use, amazing customer service and unbelievably brilliant

I have been with Starling for at least half a year if not longer. Been with multiple banks in the past. starling, although still fresh, is a 10 steps ahead of the older rivals. Reviewed on: 7th November 2018

Easy to use, reliable app, great bank.

Love the ease of use , especially abroad. Live updates of spending are very reassuring. Reviewed on: 7th November 2018

Life Changing

As an adult I truly don't feel I felt any control over managing my money or trust in banking institutions until I found Starling! I don't see myself ever leaving, they are a true gift and I feel a role model on a modern company being run well as well in a cross industry sense. Their customer service and communication and relationship building with their customers is incredible. Honestly they are the only company I would ever bother noticing they are up for an award and filling this in for. Reviewed on: 7th November 2018

Excellent banking experience.

I couldn’t be happier with my starling account, the app works flawlessly and they keep releasing new features quite often. I’ve now switched completely from my previous account, and can already tell the difference in my budget management. Reviewed on: 7th November 2018
