I did a lot of research when changing banks during my divorce. I decided to go with an on line bank because everything is on line and just thought it would be easier to bank online as well. I read articles on Starling Bank and was particularly impressed that it was founded and developed by a very smart and savvy lady! I love that I am kept up to date 24/07 and I’m a lot less likely to miss any payments these days as I am reminded by Starling whet will be taken out the following day and when I need to top up my account etc. Just loving it. So much do that I transferred my business to their business account too. Very Happy Customer! Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Love being able to save for things

It is reassuring to keep your savings protected but still access if needed also really enjoy the instant messages about payments into and out of the account. Really easy to see what payments you have made to a single person or company. All round nice bank account Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
