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

Superb experience

Since being with starling the whole banking experience has been superb , far better than two of the “major” banks I’d been with before Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Easy and sufficient banking.

Easy and sufficient banking. Excellent customer service. No need for a high street branch due to cheque deposit via app or post. Digital banking, potentially, keeps the post office alive which, in turn, enables banking for those who encounter the digital divide or who cannot access their branch. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

So straight forward and easy to use.

Nice and easy to use the app is brilliant had no issues the only thing is it would be nice to see a Starling bank branch because I'm old school and hate technology so if i got a problem i prefer to sort it face to face and it's easier rather than being on the phone for an hour going through 12 different departments for one thing other than that it's all good Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Enjoy the app that starling provide it’s so easy to use I feel very confident in using this bank everything is user friendly Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Fantastic current account

Fantastic current account, the interface is streamlined and ergonomic, everything is where it should be. Great for all ages, would especially recommend to those proficient with smartphones, as this banking app excels where others can feel clunky. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024
