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

How to make High Street banks defunct

As a form high street bank customer the excellent service Starling offers is night and day. There’s no queueing involved, and I like the fact that I have access to speak to anyone from the comfort of my own home. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Budgeting support for challenging times

Starling made it very easy to bank.

Starling made it very easy to open an account. Also it's very easy to surf through the app and get whatever I need in no time with no complications and with very good user interface. I'm recieving and sending money with ease and with no hidden fees or anything like that. It's totally recommended. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
