Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

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

Instant banking!

I love that it's instant banking. The fact it tells me audibly that money is leaving my account is such a bonus! As for "Spaces", I started with one & am up to five. Love I can control hoe & when money goes in/out. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Easy to open and setup the account. Great features.

Easy to open and setup the account. I love the real-time money in and out alerts and the warning a day ahead of direct debits. The savings spaces are much better than my old bank's separate accounts and the round ups of spending into a savings space is great. Looking forward to spending my digital "pennies jar" at Christmas!
