I had such an easy experience opening an account with Starling when a bunch of other “high street” banks turned me down for being a foreigner. I had ID and proof of residence, but they still treated me like I was something to be wary of. Then I found out about Starling, and opened an account without any fuss. The app is great, performs perfectly and is user friendly. They make banking accessible, as it should be. Couldn’t recommend them more. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
