Simplicity is often the best way

5
The bank and their app is so easy to use. Full functionality plus you can view your card details on line which makes things so much easier when you don't have your purse to hand. I have full confidence in the bank and love it so much I have opened a Kite account for my daughter which gives her financial freedom (but not too much) under my watchful eye. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Best online banking experience so far!!

5
I’ve trialled out using Starling to see how I spend my money. The instant messages when I receive or spend anything is great and the breakdown on the app is easy to read. I’ve just set up the kite account for my son just in time for his 7th birthday. He loves maths and this will help him to calculate what he saves and spends. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Quick, Convenient & Comprehensive

Transactions are handled at startling speed. App is intuitive and easy to use. Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
