Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Brilliant service

So easy to open the account, I have in fact opened a business account too Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Been with starling a few years now and honestly find them the easiest and best bank I have been with. My old bank failed to really move with the times and their mobile app offering has gone downhill, with Starling everything is so easy and straightforward and actually recommended to my family who have since either moved completely, or opened business accounts with you based on how good their experience was. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2024

Good interest on current account balance.

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

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

All the little extras make my life easier.

I have a current account and it's easy to use

I have a current account and it's easy to use - App is great and on the limited times I've had to contact the customer service has been on point. 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

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
