We Like It !

Starling was recommended to us by our God Daughter who had just been back Packing in New Zealand for six months. She used Starling exclusively throughout her trip and showed us just how easy and reliable it had been using the App and her Phone to show all transactions clearly in real time. We have now joined Starling for our upcoming trip to Australia. Funny enough though, we’ve started to use it here at home too and we rather like it. It’ really is the way forward and will use it more and more ! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
