From a Student's point of view

5
Convenience and ease-to-use are the two major drivers I value when banking. I had previously used HSBC and Barclays, and I simply cannot wrap my head around why they don't have an app like Starling's. I have full control over anything I'd need to do from my phone, where I haven't had to call them up in over a year of use, something I cannot say the same about with my old banks Reviewed on: 27th March 2021
