Great App

5
Super easy to Switch to Starling, easy App. Its great to keep track of spending too. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Great app and quick support

5
Using Starling Bank has changed how I manage my finances. “Spaces” allows me to budget for expenditure and this is offset against my overdraft which reduces my interest charges. The overdraft fees are the lowest from any bank. Support via in app chat is quick and easy to use. An actual human responds and helps you or passes you onto the correct person. A massive thumbs up to Starling Bank. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
