I have been so happy with this account since I opened it a few years ago. Everything works as described and is user friendly, even for those of us in the bus pass generation. Being able to pay in Euros while on holiday is a massive plus for me. I have converted 2 family members to Starling and both are grateful for the heads up. Reviewed on: 30th March 2021
