Superb mobile-only bank account

I've been evaluating a few of the new challenger banks and Starling is by far my favourite. Very slick app, both Android and Apple Pay integration, no foreign transaction fees and a simple, fair overdraft. It's likely that I'll switch my main current account to this mobile-only bank very soon. Reviewed on: 18th January 2018
