Saving made easy

5
I love the simplicity of saving with starling. That ability to create spaces for each type of thing I wish to set aside funds for. It’s so easy. I also applaud their approach to inclusion. I was given a cheque for my wedding but the person assumed I would be changing my surname. Another retail bank would not accept the cheque under any condition but it is rather embarrassing to have to ask someone to resend a gift! Starling simply asked to see the relevant proof and made it all easy. Delightful experience. Too many assumptions are made by companies about how people love their lives, Starling flexed to mine.

Best I have ever seen

5
Starling Bank is the best bank I have ever seen. The account took 2 minutes to open, no extra hassle or documents. Account is simple and they give you small monthly interest payment to your account depending on your balance. Every little helps. They have an amazing banking app, simple and easy to use. Everything is there in the app and I have never had a problem or had to contact them, you can do so much in the banking app it’s amazing. I live you can pay your checks in as normally you would have to go to a branch. They have amazing features to create you saving space and you can move money in & out easily. There isn’t enough words to describe how good they are. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
