So easy to use, love the spaces

I recently moved to Starling fully, after having an account with them simply for their travel benefits. I liked the bank so much I moved properly over and I dont regret it! Easy to use and I really like the extra space bit that you can put aside money in. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

The app works beautifully, payments are simple and straightforward. Whenever I have had a question I can chat to someone immediately in the app. A transaction dispute I had last year was dealt with super efficiently. Easily the best bank account I’ve ever had. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
