Good bank

Been with Monzo and Starling banks Starling stands out with fee free atm abroad , free cash deposit at post office, low overdraft fees and just feel better. Reviewed on: 7th February 2020

Best user friendly bank tool app Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

Banking as it should be

I had a seamless transfer into Starling; it went so smoothly I should have done it much earlier but had needlessly held back in case of transition problems. Day to day use of the app is straightforward with useful features to allocate funds to various savings pots. I particularly like the advance warning of upcoming payments and instant confirmation of completed payments. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
