Amazing banking experience for the modern world

I have a personal and business account with Starling and their app is beyond compare. They are light years ahead of high street banks with the services they offer plus all the amazing partners they have on their marketplace. The tech is fantastic, API-based, cloud native with real-time payments built in. Best bank in the UK without a doubt. Reviewed on: 28th November 2019
