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

My finances under control with Starling Bank.

The bank has given me the opportunity and insight to take control of my finances by creating Spaces to sort my financial outgoing and savings. I can also look into my expenses and see where and what is happening and take control of it. Any discrepancies is sorted out and explained once I contacted them. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
