Exactly what I wanted, quick and simple

Been very impressed so far. App is very well designed with some great features. Has a simple intuitive interface, easy to track payments / spending plus none of the bloat that most bank apps have. Setting up an account took about 10 minutes; card came in the post a few days later. Transferring my current account to Starling was easy. Communication during this process was always clear and appropriate to the situation. Reviewed on: 20th January 2020
