Cannot imagine ever changing bank again

5
I was stuck with the bank who provided my mortgage back in 2006 but had been gradually closing down services - their offset deal meant leaving would kill any chance of paying it off sooner. So there was no app, the website was pure early 2000s and they weren’t offering contactless. Paid off the mortgage early and quickly started looking for a new bank - Starling had great reviews so went with them. Haven’t looked back since…they are always improving the app (bill spaces for example) and it’s a proper one stop shop for all my requirements. Can’t see me ever leaving!
