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

Banking as it should be in 2024

5
Traveling abroad often has never been so easy, not a penny has it cost. Moving money using the app is easy and painless, it’s exactly what banking should be in 2024, the ‘legacy’ banks have had it too good for too long, more power to Starling! Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Life changing switch

5
Recently switched to Starling and the features on the app have been an absolute game changer. I feel in control of my current account for the first time ever (at the age of 49, never too late!) and it's taken so much stress away from my day to day life. The features make it easy to save bits of money for annual bills, see where your money has gone and plan ahead on what looks like a 'friendly' platform Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Efficient, effective and easy to manage.

5
Seamless service, help when needed is readily available. No problems, no hassle, just efficient management of my account. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Simply the best

5
Nothing is too much trouble when I contact Starling for support. The app is by far the best out there. I love having spaces to organise my money and means I can easily keep on track of my spending and saving, without needing multiple accounts. Even fun little touches like changing the icon seasonally make a difference. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
