Simply the Best!

Starling Bank is by far the best banking service I've ever used. Their app is a doddle to use and very informative on how you spend your money, pay your bills and save for a rainy day. I love the fact that you can create saving pots for holidays, Xmas etc. The best saving pot is for bills and DD's and you can authorise the bills to be taken directly from the pot. Can't recommend this bank enough, it's simply outstanding and simple to use. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
