Nothing is perfect .. but starling bank is! Reviewed on: 31st March 2023

Does everything you need from a bank

5
Since moving from HSBC, I can’t believe the difference in the quality of banking. Despite being large and reliable, there’s still a small feeling to Starling with periodic email updates, but most importantly continuous improvements to the app without causing confusion. I have my main account, but also spaces for my house renovation, savings and can share a shopping card with my wife. I can pay in cheques remotely and feel in complete control of my money Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
