Efficient, easy and feature rich bank account

Switching to Starling was surprisingly painless, easy and efficient. I had a new account setup and verified from my sofa within an hour. A breath of fresh air and a refreshing change in direction from the inflexibility traditional banks enforce upon their customers. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

I joined starling as I travel to the U.S. quite a lot due to having family there and you end up spending quite a bit of money on the international fees with your regular high street banks, with starling there are no fees. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
