Great functionality

The app is very functional and it has a lot of integrations with other services. However, sometimes it makes it slightly difficult to use. The customer service is not always user friendly. Reviewed on: 26th January 2020

Best Option for Overseas Travle

Starling Bank does all the usual banking things very well but I have found that the flexibility of using the account overseas is great. Their exchange rate is competitive and the notification system very fast. Reviewed on: 26th January 2020
