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

Excellent Bank no issues

The spaces really help me save for short goals! No issues, app interface is easy to use and customer has always been quick, personable, and sorted any issues I've surprisingly quickly. Would recommend! Reviewed on: 31st May 2023

A great modern bank!

After switching from a legacy bank (HSBC), Starling provided a breath of fresh air. The app is powerful, customer service is great, and the app encourages me to save money. A great bank! Reviewed on: 31st May 2023
