This bank makes me feel like it watches over my money when I'm not good at. It let's you put money aside I haven't seen yet a saving where higher rate and high rate & time before money able back is next one way you might help customers connect to credit agencies show it how bad or good you done that month. The bank is good and hope it stays Reviewed on: 29th August 2024

Simply great banking with Starling

Simply great bank which was recommended to me and which I recommended to a couple of friends who are using it as well. Love the various saving options, great exchange rates with no additional charges, the speed or money transfers, the fact I can add notes to some transactions which is useful when abroad to recognise them later. There are so many features, some of which I don't use yet/still. Standard banks have a lot of catching up to do to become as flexible and friendly in terms of managing banking via application!

Starling are great at helping me to budget and save using the "Spaces" feature and they have been amazing at helping me open my account without the traditional photo ID. As an autistic person, I have found their app so user-friendly and I have recommended Starling to several people and I know at least two have since opened accounts with them.
