Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Great app, great account

It really helps me manage my money Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

Revolutionary, genuinely has improved my life

From the easy 5 minute set up with no hassle or paperwork (no pathetic jobsworth processes and policies like the high street bank I left), I have been hooked and telling my friends. Its saved my girlfriend hundreds of pounds a year in bank charges. I find the best method of managing finances is to have one account for wages to go in to and direct debits to come out of, then put all your disposeable income in to the Starling account for day to day spending. Its so easy to keep check on not spending too much or going overdrawn, and especially keeping track on how much you're spending at certain establishments... McDonalds!! Starling are great, the features are years ahead of the high street banks and the customer service can only be described as rapid in comparison to others. Thanks guys! Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

Everything you could want from a bank.

Brilliant current account. Easy to manage. An amazing experience. Save on foreign transactions. And to top it off interest on any positive balance. Can't praise them enough. Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

Banking for 2019

I've been a Starling Bank customer since the beginning in May 2017, and I still love them just as much. You can see your spending in real time, it's easy to check your account whenever you want on your phone, and the new teal debit card looks so cool! Would highly recommend everyone to join them.

Best. Bank. Ever.

No problems with this bank, customer service is snappy and the app is amazing! Already referred my friends and family!!! Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

Secure and intuitive

The application is user friendly, secure with a 24h assistance. It's very easy to check quickly whatever you need in an intuitive way. Highly recommend. Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

Irreplaceable experience

Starling's current account has so many great features that I legacy banks doesn't. Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

A true savior in a digital age

Starling Bank understands the problems bank customers face, especially now that everything has gone digital and money transfers have become much faster. From the way your spendings are reported in the app to the ease of putting money aside for a certain goal, Starling Bank ticks all the boxes high street banks fail to deliver. Obviously they offer the exact same services as high Street banks, but with a modern twist that guarantees optimal user experience and greatly eases money management. To top that all off, their card design is beautiful. I recommend this bank to everyone. Reviewed on: 6th November 2018
