Changed the way I bank

Before starling bank, I would rely on a credit card instead of putting money aside, had no savings and would live payday to payday. Thanks to goals and the simplicity of the app, I now save regularly, am out of relying on credit cards. Starling are the apple of the banking world. Reviewed on: 6th November 2018

Have been really impressed with Starling. Set up of my account was quick and easy, I get warning prior to direct debits coming out and I get instant notifications on any transactions including contactless which can take days on a traditional account.

To open a new account was a doddle. Very quick in receiving the bankers card. The best thing is that there are no fees for using the card abroad. Receiving a text as soon as a transaction occurs is also a bonus.... sometimes I know the card payment has gone through before the retailer! Great bank Reviewed on: 6th November 2018
