Snappy and simple

5
Up to date technology that works in a super snappy app with real time transactions mean you know exactly where you are with your account balance. Separate spaces for putting money aside means it's kept out of the way, but close enough should you need it. Everything I needed from a bank and didn't realise I was missing until I switched to Starling. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Excellent for Travelling

5
Used on my travels to Costa Rica. It was really handy. Kept me informed of all my transactions, including the exchange rate I was getting. As it's a Mastercard could use it anywhere. Being able to 'lock' it in case it gets lost or copied is really good. No charges - fantastic. Have been travelling for years. Wish I'd had it before. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Nice Fit!

5
From opening my account, requesting an overdraft, spending money, everything has been achieved quickly. I'm still finding more facilities to use, like rounding up my spending and diverting change to savings goal. So much easier to use than my old bank. Wish I'd known about it years before!
