Starling Bank Current account reviews (27425)

Good interest on current account balance.

5
Good interest on current account balance. Like that you get interest on the savings spaces too, I've moved away from other savings accounts that were paying less and here I can just quickly move money between my savings and my current account. Being able to use the card on holiday without fees is good too. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2024

Simply the best bank there is!

Simply the best bank there is! The savings goals and virtual cards are fantastic for budgeting but also for staying safe when shopping online. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2024

Excellent company

5
Excellent company who put the customer at the front of mind, the hiding of references feature for survivors of domestic abuse is a clear statement of that. The app is intuitive and the fact that you can earn interest on your current account is excellent, I can access my money and earn on top unlike most other banks. Their customer service is 24/7 for any queries and are so quick to respond with queries. 100% recommend Reviewed on: 22nd January 2024

Great Experience

I have held a Starling current account for a few years now and it is so easy to use. I really like how on the home page it tells you how much you have spent this month as well as your overall balance. The customer service team is really helpful too Reviewed on: 22nd January 2024

A great online bank!

I have used Staring for some time now and love the different accounts that they offer. Completely fit my needs and couldn't recommend them enough. Easy to set up and you can have multiple currencies and joint accounts. Give them a go, you won't be disappointed. Reviewed on: 18th January 2024

Awesome features and savings

5
Awesome customer support team. Great features and constantly new updates. They seem to always be pushing for something new. The savings accounts have been awesome and super flexible. Interest rates are always adjusting to the market rate too. Reviewed on: 17th January 2024

Great account .

5
Great account . Customer service good, although sometimes it takes an hour or so for reply. Good that they now pay better interest on current account, making them comparable to other banks. Instant notification and especially good that notifyed of coming up debits so you couldn't fail to have enough in account to pay these. Reviewed on: 17th January 2024
