Amazing features!

The round up feature and spaces make it much easier to save. I also love the availability of virtual cards for different spaces. The analytical tools are a really simple way to track my spending and offer the insights I’ve never had before. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Transferring direct debits to Starling could be easier

My main disappointment is that I couldn’t easily transfer all my direct debits from my previous bank account with NatWest to Starling. I had to do it manually which was time-consuming. TSB made it easier. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
