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

It's the best digital bank that's closest to traditional banking but without the hassles of going to a physical bank. Security wise, it's excellent. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Just a great Bank.

I have had no issues since I joined starling Bank. The app is excellent and easy to use. Customer support emails are helpful and useful. No charge for using your card abroad. And get master card rates as well. I have not had any issues so I have not had to call customer service. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024
