Bank that's been there for us

5
We travelled to New Zealand to visit family as we do every year. This year we got caught in lockdown and the boarders closed not able to travel back to the UK. We rented a house and my wife who is a nurse she carried out covid19 sobbing and working at the Nelson Medical Injury Centre. Living in New Zealand. The last few months when we needed to pay for items, our Starling account was there for us. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
