New way of banking

So so impressed with Starling, much easier access, more control, amazing notifications, up to date on transactions instantly. Love being able to categorise, add notes & images to transactions, and the spaces for separate savings pots are great. Its making a huge difference to the way I'm managing my money. Also paying in at the post office saves so much time and effort! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
