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

Amazing online bank! Customer focused 100%

This is the first bank I’ve been with that has given me the tools to COMPLETELY manage my money and as I round up to the pound, there’s a bit of emergency money! Nice to be able to use it when needed. Any incoming and outgoing payments are shown the day/weekend before which really helps to keep track of available income. There are so many options such as creating a separate “space” to put money by eg, having the bills money go straight to that space so giving the customer exactly the information they need. Couldn’t recommend any other bank now I’ve been with Starling Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

Changed the Banking game!

I’ve been with Starling since 2017 and it is by far the best bank I’ve ever been with. It was way ahead of the curve in terms of banking and definitely what we needed to shake up the banking industry. I can honestly say that the different saving spaces, the option to categorise different purchases and also seeing a clear breakdown of my spending has been a life changer in helping me manage my finances. I’ve recommended Starling to lots of family and friends and will continue to do so as they continue to make updates and improve the app. Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

Best online bank

Great app easy to use and when you need the customer service they are first class Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

Customer service as is should be

I've been a Starling customer for 4 years now, and find it such a simple experience. Contacting customer service is done through the app, and I've never had to wait too long for a helpful response. The app is intuitive and simple. I think it's great to get instant alerts when there is any activity on your account, whether expected or a surprise. Transferring money to my savings account is immediate and managing payees is straightforward. I couldn't consider going back to a high street bank while they've got so much catching up to do.

Great visual saving spaces

I really like starling, it was easy to set up digitally and it's been great having lots of different tailor made spaces for my savings. The customer support has been exceptional also. Reviewed on: 9th March 2023
