Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

5
I have had an account for a couple years and I have watched other banks fade away. When I joined Starling, I signed up through the application on my phone. It was very easy. I confirmed my identity online, with somethey help me via live chat. I can upload cheques to my account. When I am a little out of pocket, I find a few spare pennies that have been automatically saved for me with each purchase. Starling is progressive and targets the current age and that is wonderful. Older people seem to get left behind in the times. This encourages them to adapt and embrace them. It welcomes them into the new age. Reviewed on: 5th March 2021

Best bank ever

5
I have been using Starling for 3 years. I can contact them whenever I need to. They provide speedy responses and are very helpful. The flexibility and features of the bank are great, for example using spaces and set up direct debits to be paid from them or order a card for that space. The child card is also really good. There is no need for a separate bank account for wither of these features. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Top bank!

5
The app is really intuitive and easy to use. Being able to partition money into spaces without it having to leave your current account makes saving for things easier. I've not had a problem to have to complain ablut anything, but whenever I've had to contact customer services, they have responded quickly and my queries answered concisely. As an added bonus, the cards are made from recycled plastic! Reviewed on: 13th March 2024
