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

Fantastic bank

For me personally, I couldn't want more, its smart, efficient and works for me and my lifestyle. From online chat services, clear instant notifications for upcoming payments, even the ease of setting up and sending bank details to receive payments, it all works so well Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Since joining, I have had no security issues, can send money easier, easy to use, change details, and it makes it so much easier to buy, save and check on my account. I could do with a slightly easier way to cancel DD's, but otherwise a great bank. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

I am very happy with my banking experience

The bank is easy to use, gives good interest rate as for current account. When I send money abroad it gives me a good rate and most important, it does not charge me for the transactions abroad. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
