Got an account with Starling bank for use abroad in the eu. The currency conversion from pounds to euros is very competitive and gives you some of the best value especially in comparison to other similar offerings. The breakdown of spendings is also super useful so that you don't overspend on you holiday! Reviewed on: 14th March 2024
