Starling online banking surpasses any mainstream banking service I have used over the years. The App is easy to use and has excellent features. The spaces feature in particular is great for budgeting. So much so, that I never have to worry about a big bill! Reviewed on: 1st April 2023

Wow, what can I say other than Starling are fab! From quick account set-up to their user-friendly app, I'm very impressed. I can manage my money easily whenever and wherever I want. Notifications are sent instantly after any transaction so can keep up-to-date on spending/money received. Love that no fees to use abroad either and get the best up-to-date rate too. The only thing that would make them better was if they gave me free money!!! Reviewed on: 1st April 2023
