Banking for the digital age!

5
Starling bank has so many simple but great features, it makes you realise how behind the times traditional banks are. I wanted more insight into my spending without having to rely on manually updated spreadsheets etc and starling has delivered that and more. All the app needs now, for me, would be budgeting and it would be perfect! Reviewed on: 1st February 2020

A unique and rewarding experience

After almost 5 years with HSBC and a completely annoying relationship, I decided to move to Starling. It is like love at first sight. Amazing !!! Hope I will never change my bank again. Thank you Starling Bank ! Reviewed on: 1st February 2020
