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

Never had any trouble using Starling. I've recently been victim of a fraud, and luckily, Starling's team have helped me get my money back. I'm very comfortable knowing that my money is secure in Starling's vault. Reviewed on: 5th April 2023

So glad I switched to Starling

I appreciate the features in the app (lock your card if you're not sure where it is, photograph a cheque to pay it in), the ease of use and the security. Really glad I switched to Starling. Have already signed up my teenager and working on my mum to get her to leave her (imo) terrible bank. Reviewed on: 5th April 2023
