I love the confirmation messages telling me when I have spent giving me reassurance that my money is safe. If my card is used I instantly know if there is a problem. Also love the goals feature letting me save for things I need without feeling the pinch. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Easy to use

I needed a simple account to cover all my expectations. This was it Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

THE Best Bank, Ever

5
had Starling for 2 years now. Tried high street, Monzo & First Direct banks so far and this gets my vote every time. There are no downsides that I can think off. Customer support is second to none. The only bad thing that springs o mind is that the Android version needs to match the IOS version as it’s much easier to navigate. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
