Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Excellent Banking App

The Starling Banking App is excellent and never get stuck unlike other banking apps. Startling is most effective and efficient. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Just the thing

I have been with Starling for a few years now. Banking with them has proved to be to the point, no fuss, no hassle. The app and their banking services have been extended since I first started so functionality and banking features are constantly improved/reviewed. The app is stable and it's easy to navigate to where you want to go. I'm very pleased with the introduction of their one year fixed interest saver account. The only reason I haven't given full marks is that - happily - I haven't encountered any banking problems that would have tested their customer services or technical helplines, and hence I can't comment on their performance in these areas. I'd be very happy to recommend banking with Starling to friends and family. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Additional needs friendly

I have autism and ADHD and with this comes dyscalculia, a number dyslexia. I can manage my account very easily with the app. It's a great visual tool for me and breaks things down into manageable pieces. I don't feel like Starling is trying to con me by hiding things then charging me like other banks do. A simple to use, honest service. Just right for me. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Great Bank

Very easy to open the account great service Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Revolutionised our banking

The app is such a great tool for managing money. It is so helpful to be able to assign categories to your spending and track them, and I find the savings space feature incredibly useful as well. This is a huge step up from our previous experience with Barclays. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Love Starling!

I absolutely love the way Starling bank accounts operate. I get notifications of transactions which is really helpful, the 'spaces' feature is genius. The app is really easy to to use. I have all the information I need easily accessible in a really customer friendly app. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

The Best Bank In The World

I moved from RBS to starling and I haven't looked back. Ease of use and brilliant support must make this bank the best there is. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

easy online banking

So easy to use the Starling App, lets you know about upcoming payments and you can track your spending. Always reliable, I haven’t had a single problem with this account! Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Fantastically Simple

Brilliant no-fuss do-anything on-line bank that is reliable and available 24-7. I wouldn't be without it! Reviewed on: 6th April 2023
