Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

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

Great easy to manage current account

The best thing about this is the saving spaces. We have one for our bills so we can adjust how much to transfer ( that starling does for us) and ‘no bills’ come out of our main account. We can’t set up other accounts for holidays/kids etc also great /easy customer service Reviewed on: 24th February 2023
