What banks should be like

5
I love starling and been telling everyone I know to sign up. It's so easy and convenient. I initially got it for use while on holiday because it meant I didn't have to carry cash and could take out only how much I needed I loved the white card it arrived packaged in, it felt super lux and the card is so pretty. Very easy to transfer money into it, check my pin if I needed to and temporarily block my card. I love it! Reviewed on: 21st January 2020
