Starling bank has improved my spending and the switching from nationwide I couldn’t be anymore happier! I also am able to get my little brother a starling’s ‘kite’ card for just £2 a month! Starling has really shaken up online banking in a good way. Definitely a ⭐️for starling Bank! Reviewed on: 5th March 2021

Best bank going

5
Starling bank do banking incredibly well. They are by far the best bank I have ever been with. Their customer service is easy to access, and the way you can analyse your spending is fantastic. I like the “spaces” feature where you can allocate money for various different things, and not have to worry about spending it. But by far the best thing is the way in which transactions are processed straight away. I don’t need to remember that I spent £30 three days ago, and therefore can’t afford the takeaway I want tonight. Reviewed on: 4th March 2021
