Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

Dead wood

They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

Truly fabulous online banking.

Truly fabulous online banking. I managed to get an account for my new business during lockdown, when my existing bank could not. So I went the whole hog and got a current account too, with debit card. I have never looked back. Superb. Reviewed on: 26th March 2022

It just works

I wish I'd switched sooner, this makes life so much easier. My main reason was wanting to bank ethically, though. Reviewed on: 26th March 2022

Cream of the crop

Best online bank by far. Leaves traditional banks in their wake. Reviewed on: 26th March 2022

Great account which works with Garmin Pay

I opened a Starling account because I have a Garmin watch and wanted to use its contactless payment feature. Only a handful of banks support Garmin Pay - Starling is one of them. The Starling app is great - really simple to use and you can even transfer funds to other Starling users who are nearby - great for splitting the bill in pubs! Reviewed on: 26th March 2022
