An Excellent Bank

5
The app is very good. Notifications of spending arrive within five seconds of paying for shopping. The app is very informative, full of information and with wallets to save for anything specific. The switch from previous bank was fast and hassle free and, after a limited time, I was offered a generous, but not excessive, overdraft facility. Overall, an excellent bank Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

New kid on the block

A refreshing change in banking changed from Lloyd's to First Direct but still felt undervalued even as a new customer...Starling are an entirely different bank altogether...love them, love the app, love the flexibility 10 out of 10. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
