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 to use and helpful staff

Find this so easy to sign up for and to manage the account. Bring able to set up 'spaces' makes a big difference for savings and separating money Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Very good bank, ALMOST perfect

Absolutely great bank. It’s almost there, however there are a few features that you’d expect a bank to have that they don’t support. Their product offering is somewhat limited and the number of services they offer limits tue functionality at times. All this means I use Starling as my main bank, but it cannot act as my only bank. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

So easy to use

Pots make it easy to spend only what I've got. Being notified of every payment is great. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
