Great Bank all round

Been with Starling a couple of years now and their app is so convenient, cheques clear with 1 working day usually and if you have a problem you can have an online chat straight away. Really happy with the service. Before this I was with NatWest for 20+ years and Starling are 100% better. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
