Super Simple and Brilliant

I set up a Starling Bank account on line, received the card within a couple of days and started to make use of it's flexibility when on holiday on the French Swiss border. I could pay for food and drinks either side of the border irrespective of Euros or Swiss Francs being the currency and almost immediately see how much I had spent converted to Sterling. So simple and brilliant everyone who travels should have one..... Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
