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

Surprisingly Good!

I’m surprised at how good Starling are. I keep waiting for something to go wrong but so far very good. Their customer service and technology has convinced me to switch from Natwest to Starling. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Better than the High Street

Much better than the High Street bank that I’d been banking with for almost 50 years. Easy to sign up, to bank cheques and to check statements. Wish I’d swapped over years ago! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
