Starling is Sterling

Starling bank is excellent. The app is very easy to use and has all the information I need. I love that I can use spaces to put money aside. starling always let me know when money is due to come out and let’s me know if I need to add more to my account to cover payments. An excellent bank. The best bank I’ve used in my 32 years of banking. Reviewed on: 1st April 2023
