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

My favourite, super versatile, current account

I love that Starling lets me use virtual savings pots, virtual cards, and even pay bills from specific safing spaces. I love that I get instant notifications about everything that happens with my account, and if i forget my PIN it's super easy to re-set it. I also appreciate that it integrates with Google Wallet too. Reviewed on: 14th April 2024

Super easy and very straight forward!! Brsvo

I love using the app - so easy and straight forward. I would like to see more choice when picking a label for what my money has been spent on but apart from that it’s great. Every time I’ve needed additional help customer service has also been very good! Reviewed on: 14th April 2024

The app is so easy to use and the information breakdown it gives you on your spending is great. It’s very easy to use, quick and responsive. A highlight for me is not being charged for using my card abroad as we travel a lot. Getting interest on my account each month is a real bonus too! Reviewed on: 14th April 2024
