Review of the Starling Bank, Current Account:

Very Good Quality

5
I had to find a new current account as Marks & Spencer are closing all their current accounts. I saw an on-line video about Starling Bank and knew that this would be the account for me as everything is done by App on my phone. My switch date was 19th March and I am extremely impressed. First of all with the card itself as all your information is on the back. The App itself tells you exactly what you have spent each day and what is due to come into your account. For instant is has a circle in the middle of the App which states what you have spent on a particular day. If you tap on it, it will give you a breakdown as to where exactly you have spent it. It also shows direct debits going out the following day and any incoming money. The other benefit was that you could use your card for Contactless purchases straight away. This suits me really well because I only have to check my phone to see where my money is going which is great. I am sure that I am going to become more happy when I have familiarised myself completely with the services available on this card. So far I am extremely happy and would recommend it Starling Bank to any of my friends considering switching banks. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Starling makes saving so easy.

Starling makes saving so easy. The spaces that you can name mean that you can save pots of money which build over time, meaning you’re never left unsure as to how much money you have and for what purpose. Reviewed on: 15th April 2025
