Review of the Starling Bank, Current Account:

What more could you want

I opened my Starling account due to going on holiday (back when we could) and they offered no fees when spending abroad, but I have truly found it the best account I have, simple and easy to use, efficient and focused on customer satisfaction, I have recommended widely, and now wouldn’t go back to any other bank! I have a children’s Kite account as well which my daughter loves. Well done Starling, restored my faith in the banking industry. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Never had a problem. Have several pots for different savings. Card for my grandson so he has his own money and others are able to add to it. There's also a helping hand card that you can top up and give to a friend to shop for you if needed. Reviewed on: 6th March 2025

Starling makes managing my money easy.

5
Starling is so easy to use and to see exactly what I spend. They reply to queries promptly and also supply good advice generally about avoiding fraud and scams. The Saving Spaces help me manage my money efficiently and the fixed rate accounts are a good deal. Using my Starling card abroad is easy and avoids unnecessary bank charges. A top service!
