Review of the Starling Bank, Current Account:

I enjoy starling bank.

I enjoy starling bank. They have good values, and are relatively easy to use. I really like the pots functionality, where you can set aside money in different pots, which means it's still in the same account but inaccessible. However, their app could be a bit more useful in terms of viewing past transactions - they don't show you a net amount (i.e. whether you have net gained or net lost money that week/month) which would be useful. Also, they got rid of their piechart infographic on the main page in the app, which is a shame. But still a good bank. Reviewed on: 26th February 2025
