Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Switched to Starling

Joined Starling last year and transferred my First Direct Current account to them . Really impressed with just how simple it was . Got fed up with First Direct scaring the pants off me with Security procedures after having to deal with my late Fathers probate so decided to switch most of my banking requirements to Starling . Couldn't have been easier .The app is veru customer friendly and even the most techno phobic person would have no problem in using Starling as their preferred banking provider Thanks Starling and well done !

Couldn't ask for better.

Can anyone beat the Star in Starling

Can't really fault them except for payments with too much security and delays sometimes. Better than any bank I used in the past. Forget Barclays the worse, HSBC, Nationwide, First Direct, Halifax, etc are all behind Reviewed on: 1st April 2023
