How banking should be

5
Switching was easy and the app does everything you need. I’ve not come across a situation in which I regret not having a high street bank yet. Intuative interface, quick and make sure it easier to manage my money than ever before. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Modern banking with regular updates

5
After a trial period of other new fintechs, we have now moved over to Starling for our daily joint current account. Quick updates, no monthly restrictions on cash withdrawals, an app that is stable, reliable and updated regularly. I had to contact support once and they responded quickly and in a friendly manner. What's not to like? Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Best joint account I could find, for both UK and international use. They also give you a few pennies extra. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018

Tried this bank with a £1k deposit, found everything easy and efficient so moved everything from Santander ( who kept spelling my name wrong) And have not looked back. Reviewed on: 7th December 2018
