Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

No-Nonsense

5
No waiting, no excuses, simple easy banking, they show the others how it should be done. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2023

What a every debit card should be like.

5
Other bank's debit cards are extremely hard to manage, and it's hard to see how much you have in there all the time and hard to customise it. Starling changed the game. You can check what's in your bank account all the time since it's on your phone. not every bank does this. The card itself looks amazing. I love that there is no fees for international use, transfer or payments since I travel alot. Also, you don't have to pay anything to transfer money into your bank account, which some banks do. It has amazing, and quick support 24/7. The app makes everything simple. And they care about the environment because they plant a tree everytime you invite someone over to starling bank. Never regretted starling bank as my bank and always been happy with them, I'm now a very loyal client to them. Reviewed on: 24th January 2023
