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

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

Very good communication when I had a problem with a transaction recently. I like the ease of using my accounts both current and savings. The interest offered is better than other banks I looked at. I would definitely recommend Starting Bank to friends and family. Reviewed on: 17th April 2025

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
