A brilliant bank.

A brilliant bank. I’m often in the Eurozone and the rate is always favourable; I can transfer money; I use the Spaces function to save for myriad forthcoming financial events; the App itself is very user friendly and the communication is pitched just right. I have recommended Starling to numerous people, all of whom naturally have different requirements from a bank but are equally evangelical about Starling. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
