Superb bank all round

Brilliant online. Excellent customer service. Great abroad. I lost my card but they instantly gave me a new online card so I could continue contactless banking on my mobile. I love my ‘spaces’ too for saving and sorting my money. And putting into extras each time I spend adds money to savings without me even missing it. Starling just smash it out of the park!

Great bank account as I can don’t need to go to a money exchange. Just transfer pounds from my account over into my € account. Very competitive rate. Use the same card whether paying in pounds in the UK or paying in euros in the EU. Reviewed on: 31st March 2023
