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

Easiest account I've ever had. 24/7 online customer service.

Easy to transfer money. Easy to contact customer support. I love that you can create spaces to put money for saving up and bills and that money can stay separate. I know where everything is and it gives me piece of mind. I don't like a few things like the 'pending'. If you cancel a pending transaction you have to have it in writing from the seller that they do not intend to take the money and Starling have been difficult to deal with when this happens as they are the ones holding the money. Also there are a few places that do not accept this as a bank account for set up, so you need a back up account. That's inconvenient. Hopefully that will change soon. For someone that does everything on my phone, this is the easiest banking app I've had. The contact less card is great. I cannot go overdrawn so i have piece of mind Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
