Review of the Starling Bank, Current Account:

Confusing and poor user experience

They have just rebuilt the same old banking experience on newer technology, so overall it still delivers a poor user experience. I personally don’t get the hype here at all Reviewed on: 13th February 2023

Good choice for easy management of accounts

Disappointed that the 'pots' no longer attract interest, but overall I find the app excellent and when I need help, the process is very efficient. Moved after disappointing experience with high st bank, and have been very pleased with the online approach. What seems like it could be tricky in the event of problems is actually much better organised than other providers. I find the ability to pay bills from a separate pot very useful.

Highly flexible account with useful features

Love the account app, ability to create virtual cards and no additional fees for using the card abroad. The automated spend category reporting lets me see where my money is going easily. Reviewed on: 13th June 2025

Supportive Starling!

Had a few scam transactions that were dealt with so well, swiftly, with excellent customer service from start to finish. Love the spaces features and simplicity of use of the app. Really useful breakdown features for tracking my spending on a monthly basis. Reviewed on: 13th June 2025

App is great. Payments show up straight away. Reviewed on: 12th June 2025

I love Starling Bank, Very Happy!

I love Starling Bank, I have had several accounts with other banks previously and there has always been issues ('hidden fees Barclays!?). So, Starling feels fresh and modern as a bank. It was really easy to set up, I like the video security feature. Having 'spaces' to divide your money into seperate areas within the app is great for organising your funds. I make use of the no currency conversion fee to get great deals and save money buying from other countries. The company also seems to have a pretty 'sound' (good) ethos. Overall I'm happy! So impressed infact that I have got both of my sons setup with a Starling account also. :D Reviewed on: 24th May 2025

It’s easy to bank with Starling.

It’s easy to bank with Starling. I know where my money is, I can save for things easily, and I know they’re not investing in anything unethical (like lots of high street banks are!) Reviewed on: 22nd April 2025
