This type of banking is becoming increasingly popular due to the perceived benefits of mobile banking. However, this type of bank account might not be suitable for those who prefer the face-to-face contact that comes with a high street bank branch.

Yes, you can apply for an overdraft, which may be offered to applicants who pass credit and affordability checks. The bank also offers access to personal loans. It is important to be aware that borrowing does come with costs, mainly in the form of interest charges, which can be compared by looking at AER or APR rates advertised by lenders. There may also be fees for borrowing more than you arranged, for example.

How do I apply for a Starling Bank current account?
To begin the application process for a Starling Bank current account, you need to download the banking app through the App Store or through the Google Play Store.
