Review of the Monzo, Current Account:

Desperate, try to upsell you on gimmicks

Maybe I'm not the right target audience but I find the app constantly nagging you to upgrade to their premium products, which in my opinion represent poor value for money. I find it baffling that they think a shiny metal debit card is something people want, but maybe I'm too old for their target market. It's gotten so bad in the last 6 months I've decided to start moving away from their current account. I know they need to make money but I wish they were less obnoxious about it.

Review of the Starling Bank, Current Account:

No nonsense banking

I've had no problems with Starling, their marketing reflects the product and they don't get in your way, or try and dazzle you with bells and whistles that you don't need. The app is functional and comes with some neat security features like if you make an online payment via debit card, the app will prompt you to confirm the details. Gives a nice peace of mind. One thing I appreciate about Starling is they don't constantly try and upsell you to any premium product, which I find intensely annoying from one of their competitors who nag you to pay them £15 a month for a silly metal card. Overall no complaints. Reviewed on: 27th February 2021
