I've been with FD for over 30 years but have found Starling to be a revelation in terms of user-friendliness and brilliantly helpful App-interface Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021

Easiest international transfers

5
I opened a Starling account in 2020 to manage transfers from GBP to Euros, as I regularly Need to send funds to Italy for my second home there. The app is so easy to use, and you can easily see funds in you both your accounts (GBP and Euros) simply by toggling between the two. Exchange rates and transfer fees are clear and transfers are super quick. Ive closed my previous International account (with one of the major high street banks) as it was just difficult to use, fees were high, And there was no app facility. Well done Starling, I love it!
