Brilliant bank

I love this bank account, so easy to use. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Simple and innovative

5
The bank is extremely innovative. For example as premium customer at a high street bank it’s such a hassle if I forget my password, whereas the video recognition with Starling makes it so much more efficient and user friendly. Spaces where I can separate my funds with out having to open up multiple savings accounts is game changing. The app is extremely user friendly, and intuitive as I am always able to complete my task from integrating third party accounts such as pension to applying for a bank account in the first instance.
