Loads of competition, but...

There’s loads of these “banks for the millenials” popping up everyday and I’ve been tempted to try them out. But to be honest, I figured that Starling does everything that these other banks do and even better! Starling baby! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

Best Banking Experience EVER!!

5
Running 3 businesses, my life is incredibly busy and I don't have time for complicated banking. I need something app based so that I can bank whenever or wherever. I know all banks have apps, but this is a truly app based banking experience. There is no expectation of having to go into a bank to do anything. Perfect for someone like me. I downloaded the app and applied for my new bank account, which took me all of 5 minutes without any paperwork. My signature was a simple video. It was all done on the app. My card arrived in a stunning envelope - thought I'd been invited to a posh do :D The app is very easy to navigate, not complicated at all. I love that I can save money/set money aside simply by creating spaces within my account on the app. Starling is still new to me so I can't wait to explore more, but so far, so good. I have a feeling this is going to be the best banking experience I've had! Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
