Everything I need, an app that works, and superlative service

5
I switched to Starling last year because I wanted to bank with a "stable disruptor" - if there is such a thing! And Starling offers just that: my money is as safe as it would be in any other big-name bank, and it has embraced technology to innovate as well as to expedite, and I'm all for that.

Money management made simple, efficient and "clean" with some handy features that have allowed me to go from struggling every week to month to actually getting a grip and putting money away, despite having less coming in these days. Not what you've got but what you do with it and Starling app works and makes so much sense. Switching to Starling has transformed my financial health and thus improved my actual health.
