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

Simple, Clean, Informative

All the information you could ever want in the app, deposites at any post office and notifications whenever something comes in or out of your account. Add to that the ability to spend abroad at the exchange rate without any nonsense. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Designed for today and tomorrow

5
Starling is designed to cope with today’s technology and the banking needs of tech-ready people. It can move easily with changing banking codes and laws, and is customer focussed, and is not encumbered by legacy-banking software with background departments are not joined up, making banks focus on themselves, not customer needs. It won’t work for the long tail who still need and want F2F banking, but for the next generations, this is the way banking should be. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
