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

Intuitive Banking

The system with saving spaces makes life so easy. There are many useful ideas such as Bill splitting. I have always felt safe with the banking app. Their system offers a bank system that is so reliable and intuitive that banking just melts into the background of life due to the complete lack of stress..

Always recommend Starling to my friends!

I have both a current and business account. The app is amazing, really easy to navigate and the spaces are an excellent tool! So much better than my Nationwide account I’ve had for over 20 years! Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

The app is so easy to use, it's clearly a bank with online presence in mind. My old bank was a bricks and mortar type and their app was quite old fashioned by comparison. Any time I've needed to contact customer support they've been really responsive and helpful. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Simple easy banking. I love that I have no fees abroad, Just an exchange rate. Always quick to respond to questions I have through messaging on the app. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

I love the special features

I've had little experience of customer service hence neutral score. I especially like the spaces in the current account and the way you can see clearly how you spend your money every month. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024
