Fantastic banking service

I recently set up a starling account at the recommendation of 2 friends. So quick and easy to set up in comparison with our high street banks. I've already recommended to several family and friends. Love the little extra services that come with the account like the little savings pots Love it! Reviewed on: 10th February 2019

Fantastic.

Originally came across Starling Bank when looking for the best debit/credit cards to use on holiday without incurring bank charges. Recommended by Martin Lewis of moneysavingexpert I found Starling Bank very easy to set up and was absolutely ideal for my travels. You can lock and unlock your card using your phone app giving you control and peace of mind. Any notificatiins of transactions or withdrawals on your account are instantaneous via the app so you are always aware of what is going on with your finances and I really like that you can allocate funds to specific goals that you might be saving for, all within the one account. I recommended Starling Bank to some other people I was going travelling with and they too have said how fantastic it is. Reviewed on: 10th February 2019
