So easy....

I chose starling because it’s so easy to manage. As a care home manager and having deal with a god awful outbreak, I didn’t have much time or energy left to manage bills and payments to people here and there, but because starlingvus soooo easy, it took no time of mine, and was instant with out ever an issue. My friend recommended starling to me. My husband too, we easily made a joint account by holding our phones together ‘I know!’. I can pay my friend, who’s also my hair dresser, by holding my phone near hers.... how easy is that. When she’s able to work again we’ll carry on this way, I highly recommend starling.

Signed up to starling bank as a recommendation from a friend, was sceptical at first as I always used high Street banks previously but its been a pain free transition, easy to move money around when needed using their spaces function and quick notifications when money taken out, I'm thappy with this bank.
