Best bank account ever

5
I joined Starling last year after reading about it on Martin Lewis Moneysavingexpert website, I was looking for the best way to spend abroad, the process of opening the account was quick and easy, which cannot be said for other more traditional banks. I deposited money over several months for an upcoming holiday, no fees for using while abroad, use the cash machine as you would in this country and interest paid on a positive balance, what more could you want from a bank, customer service is great, they are friendly and helpful, would highly recommend Starling Bank to anyone, the new future of banking.
