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

User Friendly application

I initially got my starling account because I was going abroad and was recommended for currency transactions. However over thf years I’ve found it helpful for savings ( different pots for different goals. ) Rounding up adds to my savings and interest rate is now more competitive than ig was originally I also find the ability to add notes to transactions also helps me keep a track of my spending Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Excellent service always there when help needed

Easiest bank to set up and use I’ve ever had. Extremely user-friendly, I like the aesthetics also. Good interest rates and I love the spaces feature being a part of the account while separating short term savings. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
