Great for spending abroad and keeping track!

I opened a starling account to avoid taking huge amounts of cash on holiday as the current account allows me to use my debit card the same way I would if I were at home with no transaction charges and a good exchange rate. The app is great too as it instantly notifies you when payment is approved and presents all your spending history in a clear way Reviewed on: 25th July 2024

Starling was easy to switch over from my high street bank. The saving spaces and virtual cards are a great way to help manage my monies.
