Top-notch modern app

5
The Starling app on which you control your banking is fantastic. It’s intuitive, very user friendly and you are in complete control. You get real time notifications that come through for every transaction made, and can easily see your daily/weekly/monthly spend to keep track of your habits. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Fast , Clear and Simple

5
After dealing with traditional brick and mortar banks that have invested little to no effort into their customer journey, Starling is the breath of fresh air I was looking for. Fast and easy customer service, a clear and simple setup and their app is a joy to use. I get transition and direct debit notifications instantly, I’m never in any doubt as to where my finances are coming or going. Couldn’t recommend them enough. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
