Never had a problem. Have several pots for different savings. Card for my grandson so he has his own money and others are able to add to it. There's also a helping hand card that you can top up and give to a friend to shop for you if needed. Reviewed on: 6th March 2025

Starling makes managing my money easy.

5
Starling is so easy to use and to see exactly what I spend. They reply to queries promptly and also supply good advice generally about avoiding fraud and scams. The Saving Spaces help me manage my money efficiently and the fixed rate accounts are a good deal. Using my Starling card abroad is easy and avoids unnecessary bank charges. A top service!

Spaces feature is an excellent idea.

I use the Spaces feature by transferring money into them so that a direct debit is never missed. Reviewed on: 28th February 2025
