Excellent and Intuitive Service

5
The starling account is incredibly helpful. All the notifications on spend, the spaces feature (and that you can program debits into a space!), the ability to tag spend and view different types over the month make it very easy to understand my habits with money and save. Additionally, the pin reminder is an extraordinarily helpful feature that has got me out of a spot quite a few times. Reviewed on: 7th April 2021

I have a personal and joint account with starling. 24 hr customer service and ease of use on the app and desktop banking. Spending categories helps to show where my money is actually going. Adding money to move to savings is a great idea to make me save when spending. Knowing when money is coming out 24 hours before so your prepared is an excellent idea. Also when it has left your account and where you spent it. All in all a great Bank which has made me move from a traditional high street bank. Reviewed on: 6th April 2021
