Great functionality. Really easy to use. Love the ‘spaces’ feature - I’ve always struggled to save money but I finally am each month. Customer service lacking though unfortunately. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Starling is a fantastic bank that I really feel is focussed on its customers. Contact with the bank is easy and seamless and you can speak to someone quickly when you have a problem. The app is easy to use and things such as the pots which help me manage me money really effectively. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024
