Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

No-Nonsense

Starling bank is brilliant!

Starling bank has a great app and plenty of functions and features. I love the insights it provides and this is by far a great feature. I can see where I spend my money and so forth. Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

The first digital current bank account and still the best

As a finance journalist I test many different bank and e-money accounts. Chase, Monzo, Starling, Kroo. Starling is the only one that has managed to get me to stick with it through and through and use it as my main daily account. It may not be as fast to add new features or innovate as some, but its features are thought out, and available to all account holders. Some like Monzo save the best features for premium accounts. With Starling it's all available for free. Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

amazing, it must be experienced !!

i have had this account since feb 2018 initially as a trial hpwever i have moved all to starling . the asbility to be able to create virtual spaces is really good and the new ability to be able to link payments direct debits to a space and now to be able to create virtuial cards takes the account toi another level. This account offering could help so many peoplke that are challanged by budgeting.. i cant believe how good this account is and how it continues to innovate . amazing Reviewed on: 9th March 2023
