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

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

Staring bank is a fast and friendly bank

When I lost my bank card, somebody called and informed them, they informed me and take appropriate action to cancel that card and issue a new one in a very short time without putting any stress on me. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Very good banking service. Safe and secure and benefits of spaces account is great for rewards when topped up. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Absolutely outstanding, has changed my life

I moved to Starling Bank from another relatively big UK based bank, that do not offer anywhere near the level of functionality that Starling do. Every month I used to have to mentally calculate what I had each week and how much I needed to move around and make sure was available for bills and payments. Moving to Starling lifted this massive mental burden and freed up that thought space for thinking about family, work and things that are more positive, I genuinely mean it that it has changed my life, for the better. I would absolutely recommend using Starling to anyone! Reviewed on: 6th April 2023

Use Starling for everything!

Customer service is fantastic. One of the best service teams I’ve ever dealt with. The app is fantastic too and I’m glad to be part of it. Reviewed on: 6th April 2023
