Amazing, revolutionary banking for modern life

5
Amazing company, mostly automated but with polite and helpful people when I've needed to ask unusual questions etc. Simple things, like alerts the day before a payment is due when you have a low balance, not allowing you to build up charges if you accidentally bounce a direct debit, a flawless app, amazing joint accounts, business accounts that seamlessly fit into the app. Post office payments, ah I could go on forever with little things that make Starling the best bank i have ever dealt with - by a long way.
