Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

From loads of old accounts to Starling Spaces...

We had a number of old accounts in our other main bank. Rather than having to manage all the different payments in and out of the five accounts we switched it all to Starling using their Spaces facility to create 'sub accounts' whcih gave us a single view and easy management of our monthly finances.

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
