Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

5
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 for personal and business banking

5
I have both a personal and business account with Starling. They work extremely well, have multiple useful functions, and I have had no problems at all over the 5 years they have been my main account. I find the spaces facility really useful for paying specific bills from separate pots in both accounts. I would heartily recommend the bank. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
