Straight Forward and Fuss Free

5
I've tried a few banks over the years and have never stuck to each one. Each once has been such an utter disappointment. Then I decided to give Starling a try and so far they've been efficient, straight forward and fuss free! Their online chat has always been helpful and surprisingly fast too. Up-keeping savings and payments has been easy and worry free. I'd highly recommend them! Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
