I use my Starling account when on holiday abroad (yes I do have a good memory!). Great for getting cash out of ATM's without getting charged for the privilege! I love the way any transaction you make is there straight away on your phone. You don't have to worry if it has gone through OK or if it is for the correct amount. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

A 21st century way of banking

5
I tried a current account to see if it would be a way to teach my wife about online banking as our two existing banks are both clunky. What a revelation. Very straightforward and she’s taken to it like a duck to water. I’ve even created a Euro account which makes travelling more simple. Have closed one of our two bank accounts and considering moving the second one over too. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

So simple

5
Best online banking experience I have had the pleasure to use, not just in this country but in Europe too. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021

First bank account, intend to stick

First bank. Mobile and web app provide a great overview on the state of the money in the account and the app has great tools for managing money. Reviewed on: 29th March 2021
