Every time I ring with what I think is a stupid idea, they help without making me feel stupid, what they do after I’m not bothered, they make me feel like that they I’m the only person there. Also sorry bug when I do talk, they all understand even if I dnt explain well. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

It's nice to actually speak to someone as opposed to having to select options only to hear played back messages. The app works very well and I have had no problems using it. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Hand on heart Starling spaces taught me to save. Having spaces with goals, %s of goals etc to visually display progress encouraged me to save. Additionally having multiples spaces in the same app made saving easier as it wasn’t all in one big unorganised pot. Had no issues with the current account side of things, but it’s the saving spaces that make it fantatic for me. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024
