Starling Bank - Exceptional Company

5
After 35 years with a major high street bank, I moved to Starling Bank following a recommendation and reading all the web data, the biggest motivator was Anne Boden’s blogs so honest it was gard to believe. Having made the change (so very simple to do I hasten to ad) In October 2019, everything has been simplicity in the extreme. Congratulations Anne B by 2025 you will be CEO of a monster, and I for one will plough cash into a share issue when it arrives. This company will crush all the high street banks because the young are tech and mobile savvy and don’t need hassle with going into the high street banks. By the way I’m 61 and find the App a wonderful work of genius. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
