Goals and Visibility of Spending

5
Recently joined Starling Bank from HSBC and the visibility of your spending is brilliant. The goals option is great and rather than having to setup a new account it remains as part of your balance, amazing. Another thing for me is that being semi rural there is a distinct lack of banks in our local town so Starling being online only is great as well, with the option to deposit at Post offices which is 2 miles away.
