Not Just a standard online bank

5
I have been with starling a few years now and they have been excellent. Since I decided to move to Starling they have been really helpful. The app is brilliant and allows you to have different 'spaces' so that you can round up your spending so its easier to save or even set your bills to come out. A really useful feature is that it shows you payments going in before they clear. This can be incredibly useful for cheques or for low income families wanting to check monies coming in. Customer service are available 24/7 and are always helpful. Reviewed on: 27th March 2022
