Great for Overseas ATM withdrawals

5
There's so much about my Starling account that is innovative ..... the reason I opened it was for overseas travel to avoid the extortionate charges from the bank I have been with for decades. I am now realising that Starling Bank offer a better overall product not just for ATMs on holiday. I would give them more than five stars if I could! Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

I am with one of UK's reputed bank already, but managing the account online is not so easy. Referred to Starling by one of my friend, easy setup, easy to use, app based, no blockage of cards hurdle, excellent app, instant notifications, monthly summary report awesome. Overall a very happy customer Reviewed on: 24th January 2020

Excellent for overseas spending

5
Simple to use. Accepted widely. An improvement might be to allow online transaction authorisation via email or smartphone app as receiving a text message, when abroad, can be problematic. Reviewed on: 24th January 2020
