They stopped developing and moving on. Also, I will take decision my self when and how much to invest into cryptocurrencies. Reviewed on: 26th January 2023

All in one travel toolkit

Cannot fault the account and service, used while driving across Europe and while in Azerbaijan didn't miss a beat and saved enough for a couple of extra meals out. Family members and friends have now joined and I recommend the starling account on the forum that I am a member of. I no longer need to transfer money abroad for spending and bill payment, I just go to a ATM and withdraw what I need as I need it , all without charges and at MasterCard rate. Highly recommended.
