I just love Starling, the app is so easy to use and it's updated regularly with things we want from the bank, not like others who change things to suit them. It was so easy to set up an account virtually too. Even though its all online they are always there for help and support. I need to open accounts for my kids soon and it will definitely be with Starling. Reviewed on: 1st April 2023
