This is how all banks should be!

The Starling account was so easy to set up! My debit card arrived within a couple of days and I could use it straight away. The app is so simple but has great features including spaces to create savings goals and to put money aside. You can easily see what you have spent, including where by looking at your summary and you also receive notifications when you’ve used your debit card. It’s easy to transfer money between accounts too. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
