So easy to use very good rates abroad Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Easy, convenient, money saving

Since we switched to starling bank we feel like we have more control over our money, it's alot clearer to see what money is yours rather then what money is available which makes things deceiving. Before we switched we was always overspending. We also love how you can track you spending and put away money into your spaces to help save for things. I also have a business account I use for my business, I love it just as much and you don't get charged monthly fees. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Superb Bank

Nothing but praise for this online only bank. The application process is fast and simple. The spending notifications are brilliant and interest is higher than my bank each month. Using the card abroad is a pleasure. No commision on card purchases and always the best exchange rate at the cashpoint if you draw local currency. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Outstanding!
