Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Always there when you need them

What I love about Starling is that its customer service team is available round the clock. As I often don't get round to sorting out my banking issues during my busy day, I really like knowing I can contact them outside of usual working hours. Reviewed on: 30th March 2023

Excellent Bank

I joined Starling within 2 years of them opening, so I thought it was a bit of a risk. However, it's great. You get interest on your current account (not a lot, but it's more than most), and you can separate your money and pay bills from spaces. The spaces feature is the one feature that has stopped me taking advantage of the current £200 cashback offers from banks. I just can't lose Spaces. I always know exactly how much money I have. The customer service has always been brilliant too. The staff are helpful, and responses are really quick. And it's so easy to deposit a cheque. The only downside is having to go to a post office to deposit cash. Which is not a huge inconvenience, but post offices are closing and there aren't many options locally for me.

Best bank in the UK

I've been with starling for a few years now, and they've got one of the best customer service teams I've ever dealt with. Quick response times when messaging though the app & all payments come though straight away Reviewed on: 24th March 2023

The app has literally been built from the ground up as a mobile app and it shows. It's the most modern app with the least amount of clutter and mess. Reviewed on: 24th March 2023

The best banking app

I switched about a year ago and I love it. It's easy to use and helps me keep my financial information at my fingertips. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2023

An App as it should be.

The best user interface and experience I have ever experienced, from security to making a payment in. Few taps. Savings goals for a rainy day and tools to help you manage your finances, excellent. Reviewed on: 23rd March 2023
