I got so fed up with other banks because their pending charges were really unclear and they had loads of hidden fees. Starling is easy to use and I set up a joint account with my boyfriend so quickly it made other banks look like a complete joke. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Very easy switching process; great for spending abroad

Everything went very smoothly from start to finish of the transfer process and I find the phone app very user-friendly. It's great that the current account is interest-bearing (not all are these days). I'm looking forward to being able to use online banking from a computer, which is coming soon...
