Making Managing my money fun!

5
I originally opened this account as I was going to USA and it was recommended for its competitive exchange rate. When I returned I continued to use it as Starling introduced new tweaks and I discovered more of what it had to offer. The rounding up feature is great. I’m saving money without feeling stretched. The different goal pots I can create for all the things I want to save for, and being able to add notes to my transactions so I know what they relate to ( photos too) It’s new bank that is constantly evolving to meets the needs of its customers. The debit card is pretty too Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

We signed up to Starling in anticipation of a long trip to the Far East last autumn. We had no problems! There's really nothing else to say. We are still with them now, and will go on being with them. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
