Pensioners: Never miss a bill with Spaces

5
As a Pensioner I need to make my cover costs. Spaces allows allocation of my pension to the different category of bills with Direct Debits taken from the space. With a warning message the day before payment to ensure sufficient funds are available. Remaining funds are then available for spending or saving without the chance of missing a bill. Other banks require juggling if funds and it is easy to miss a payment if funds are in the wrong account. Reviewed on: 25th March 2022

Brilliant online banking

Left a large bank due to frustrations with their online banking app. The switch to starling was faultless and the app is a doddle to use. Couldn't recommend them enough Reviewed on: 25th March 2022
