Simple

Over the past 55 years I've banked with most of the UK banks at one time or another, both personal and business, and can honestly say that Starling have proven to be by far the easiest bank I have ever had to deal with. No lengthy enrolment, no questions that they already have the answer to and no messing about. First class service. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
