Starling flys high

5
I applied for the starling bank card primarily because I am going to be doing a lot of travelling this year around the world. The free ATM withdrawal was a real winner for me. But since I have my starling card I use it everyday in the UK and abroad because its handy features in the app from freezing your card to the pie chart that breaks down how much money you have spent in 24 hours and what on. I would recommend starling to anyone and I have done to friends and family already. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
