Fantastic bank to use for travelling and cashless purchases

I joined Starling primarily to use it for my travelling in Singapore, New Zealand and Australia last year. It was my first entry into an App bank and I was slightly concerned, but there was no need for my concerns. I used my Starling card for everything on my travels without any problems, it was my best friend abroad. Due to Covid I haven’t had the opportunity to use it that much since my return, but again I’ve had no problems at all when using it in the UK. I love Starling! Reviewed on: 22nd January 2021
