I used the card to pay for everything on my trip to Australia & New Zealand. I paid for all my purchases with no transaction fees. And every time I used it, I was given an immediate notification of the cost in pounds. Brilliant! Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Don’t feel bullied by the big banks or take you for granted like the 321 rip off. Be with a bank that work for you. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020

Great product and awesome customer service

5
The products on offer are great, fee-free usage abroad and reasonable overdraft charges. You get instant notifications of any transactions so you know exactly what is happening on your account. I've had to raise a dispute with a company over dynamic currency conversion, the company (Ryanair) didn't care but Starling resolved the issue without any fuss. Reviewed on: 19th January 2020
