The best bank and app

Sounds a bit extreme but starling has changed my life! I can manage my finances much more easily, keep track of bills, ensure I always have enough money in my accounts by notifications of what is going out days in advance. My child has a kite account now and it gives flexibility and peace of mind to be able to monitor their spend and they are really enjoying the independence. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023
