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

Euro account useful for travel.

I use Starling for everyday spending both in the UK and abroad. The facility to have a Euro account on the same App is particularly useful as I frequently visit the Republic of Ireland as well as other Countries within the Eurozone. Problem free experience to date. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Best bank I have ever used

A well thought out curent account, designed from the ground up to be an easy and pleasureable online banking experience. I love the Spaces option, I have set up all my bills to be paid from a Space, so the money goes out of the main account on the 1st of the month & I don't have to think about making sure I have enough left in my budget. I have saving Spaces set up for holidays and larger one-off bills. Was easy to open a separate business account when I needed to. When I had an incidence of fraud they were reassuring and prompt. Dealing with the issue over text, as I was in a situation where I couldn't be on the phone. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
