Easy to use bank with excellent customer service

Been with Starling a year and their service has been consistently excellent. The foreign currency payment feature has been invaluable as someone who frequently travels and lives abroad for long stretches. Any interactions with customer service have been pleasant and issues dealt with quickly. All in all I'm very happy and plan on using Starling for more of my banking. Reviewed on: 4th January 2019
