Not yet perfect but pretty damn good

Would like to see an app for MS Windows 10 so that I can keep account under review on my laptop as well as my phone. I like Starling's instant updates when I spend and the ease of using just about everything to do with having a Starling account. Just don't grow too fast and fall into the traps that other online banks have. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Good UI, reliable, reputable

Easy and great features

I really like the instant notifications on transactions. I also like the spaces which is where you can save for various things separately from your main balance. And I like the payment request option so I can get paid easily by anyone who owes me money. Great experience so far. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
