Starling Bank Current account reviews (27458)

Excellent!

I've been using Starling for over 2 years and it's the best banking experience I've ever had! I originally moved from a Lloyds account I had for 31 years - what a relief! Starling have made banking so much easier for me. I love the app, which is clear and easy to use and I love the saving spaces and the fact that you can do so much with them. I feel like I'm in control of my banking again. if I need any help or advice it's easy to contact them from within the app. Full marks from me. I'm very happy with them. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Best bank in the UK have been using this bank quite a few years no issue so far highly recommended Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

So easy to access

Everything within the app is easy to access and navigate. Absolutely no waiting times or processing times. Receive and send money immediately. Received my bank statement immediately too which was very helpful in renting my new apartment. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Great banking app

I love how easy it is to use the app and the o pay bills, check spending and to save in the spaces. I haven’t had any issues with Starling at all, since joining and love the ease with which I can control my spending and how great the customer service is when I have a query. I can’t recommend this bank enough ! Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

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
