Amazing bank

I joined starling after a advert on line, I wasn’t expecting to much from starling, in a short time I’ve been proved wrong, amazing. The app is so clear, easy to use, complete with everything a high street branch offers! I have already recommended them to my friends the students I work with. Well done for being a amazing bank!

Easier, simpler and cheaper

Really quick and easy to set up an account , the app is brilliant and is by far the best account for being abroad. There are no transactions fees and if you you use your card to pay in local currency, which is always cheaper, you get an instant notification of how much it was in your currency. Highly recommended.
