Starling was so easy to set up, I set up 2 accounts during the beginning of lockdown - a personal current account and a joint account. Theres 24/7 support, help pages, 'spaces' for organised savings, notifications on spending, categorising and so much more. The best bank I've experienced. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021
