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

Game changer for how current accounts work

Mainstream banks are scrambling to catch up but still haven't managed. The instant updates and notifications, special features like named spaces with recurring transfer rules, and ability to direct standing orders and direct debit to come out of individual spaces is a game changer!

I always recommend Starling Bank

5
I've told my family members about Starling Bank, their app is the best out there. The conversion rates when paying in a different currency using your card is amazing, I've never seen such low fees, if any. I have been with Starling Bank since 2019 and I'm super pleased with the new updates they add. Reviewed on: 11th April 2023

UI is very easy to use and gives good insight into how you are using your money. Instant purchase notifications and being able to easily and freely use money abroad is great. Definitely best bank I've ever been with. Reviewed on: 11th April 2023
