The Starling App gives me greater control over my money and helps it to work for me. The handy reminders for when payments are due are especially helpful for me to build my credit rating. I also like that I can see at a glance where my money is being spent using the pie-chart graph. Online purchasing is very secure with my Starling card too. The best thing for me is how quick and fuss free Starling is in all areas. A great arsenal in the tool of busy millenials (and many other gens too I am sure!) Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
