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

Easy & simple

Have a business account that was set up within a few days. Ability to be paid from abroad. Easy banking app does everything I need! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Could not ask for more

I absolutely love the ease of this account, the saving spaces are fantastic and the round ups on anything you spend on your card make it feel like you’re not even saving even though you are Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Simply the Best!

Starling Bank is by far the best banking service I've ever used. Their app is a doddle to use and very informative on how you spend your money, pay your bills and save for a rainy day. I love the fact that you can create saving pots for holidays, Xmas etc. The best saving pot is for bills and DD's and you can authorise the bills to be taken directly from the pot. Can't recommend this bank enough, it's simply outstanding and simple to use. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Fabulous!

I had banked with a well known high street bank for over 18 years. Literally no loyalty shown and whenever anything went wrong it was always my fault and they never did anything to appease me. After a few of these incidents, I started to look for a new bank and found Starling. I'm always squirreling money away for things so their spaces are super handy and I don't have to manage it. Getting interest at the end of the month because I have money in my account is fab. Ok it might not be much but it's a nice gesture! No fees to use my card abroad?! Amazing. So pleased with this bank and I've only been with them for less than 6 months! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Simple, safe, and easy to use
