Starling Bank - absolutely ace!!

Recently moved across from another provider. Switch process really simple and completed flawlessly. Starling account gives great value benefits including decent interest up to £5k and the fantastic “Spaces” system allowing lots of money for specific savings opportunities. Coupled with the Kite Psace for child accounts and seperate cards for each space available it’s a really usable and great value bank. Previous provider is light years behind Starling. Only complaint is that they don’t yet offer their own savings accounts/ ISAs for any balances in excess of £5k, although they do have partner providers who offer good value accounts.

Top UK bank

Absolutely the best bank I've ever been with. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Fab account for children

Fab account for children to keep an eye on their money. Only downside being that others cannot send money directly to the child account. They must send it to the parent account to then be transferred Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Great platform

Great platform, great app and excellent customer service. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Very quick and easy to set up.

Very quick and easy to set up. It allows my children the independence of having a separate account and card but still under my control. It’s important they start to understand money on a card as there’s a lot of places you can’t use cash, as well as for starting to safely use the internet to shop. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

So easy to use.

So easy to use. Really easy for family to send money via the Kite Link Reviewed on: 13th March 2024
