Near-perfect bank with much better experience than any other big banks. It is super fast and enables our familiy to have a real-time view on our expenses and take back control. We are now just waiting for cash/junior ISA savings, credit card, euro account and better insurance deals/partnerships for it to be absolutely perfect. Reviewed on: 9th February 2019

I didn't think I would ever be as enthusiastic about a bank to bother writing a review but Starling is just in a class of its own. Unlimited fee-free cash withdrawals abroad, fantastic app interface, excellent customer service and cheap foreign transfers. What's not to love?? Reviewed on: 9th February 2019
