I considered opening my account for a number of months with it being completely new but once I finally did I havent looked back, it will over take my usual bank now. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020

A great way to manage your money

5
I originally opened a Starling current account because it was recommended by a friend and enabled me to use my watch to make payments. I was surprised at the speed of opening an account and how easy it is to use. The “Spaces” allows you to save money in a unique way. The graphical content in the app is informative and very useful. I now use Starling as my main method of making payments when I’m out and about on an almost daily basis. Reviewed on: 25th January 2020
