A little birdy told me...

This is without a doubt the easiest ad most communicative bank I've been a customer of. Every transaction is texted, a reminder to those of us who go mad on the contactless! Very transparent..all @ your fingertips. Customer derives are prompt to reply and very helpful. Going abroad is a breeze. No charges other than the ATM provider and up to date, good exchange rates, so no need to carry lots of dosh with you or queue to exchange before you go or when you get there. No charges on purchases abroad . I just love being a Sterling customer. Reviewed on: 30th January 2020

Find me a product that’s been designed to be user-friendly and based around the user not around with the corporation thinks they need to sell to a user. Reviewed on: 29th January 2020
