The best and eassy bank

Love the liberty I have doing my personal butget and how eassy is. Reviewed on: 24th January 2021

Banking so simple

5
The app just allows you such easy access to your money when you need it. I just love the rounding up feature which would probably just end up being a lot of loose change in my purse, but now any spare change goes into a nice little space just for me where I can easily access it to by myself that little treat I had my eye on, which I just wouldn't have done with my usual banking app. You can see where you are spending/wasting money and rein the spending in if needs be. Features are just fantastic and make my high street bank account feel pretty historic! Reviewed on: 24th January 2021

Amazing, modern, easy to use

This bank account is built for the firture of banking. The app is your hight street branch and it does everything there. No need for painful signing into websites to do certain things, its all where i need it to be. So quick transfering money. Notifications are instant. Love it. I have a HSBC, Barclaycard, Nationwide and Tescos banking accounts and by far starling is my favorite. Im slowly moving everything over to them. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021

Great bank

Banking made easy

5
Opening an account and switching to it was far simpler than my last experience. Service is instant - do something that needs a response or confirmation - and it's there before you can blink. The app is well thought, easy to use but feature rich. The Spaces feature is brilliant, it's helping me organise and realise goals by helping visualising my savings progress. I'd recommend Starling to anyone, without reservation. I have spent years with traditional banks, and they have a LOT to learn. Reviewed on: 23rd January 2021
