Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

5
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

The app is easy to use, packed full of modern and handy features, but also manages to feel personal, making you feel in control of your money and motivated to save and feel in control. The bank itself ranks highly on most ethical comparison lists, certainly compared with high street banks! Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Everything I've needed had been there

Everything I've needed has been there and Starling doesn't charge extra for foreign currency spending or ATM withdrawals. Their online help is great. And they pay interest on my account. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024
