So easy

5
From joining, through downloading the app, through paying in cheques, drawing cash abroad, paying by card or phone/ contactless, to seeing and being alerted to transactions, balance and all the rest, it’s just really simple and secure and easy. For 2 years I ran Starling alongside my (up till then) traditional current account, but now it’s my main account and the other one will be closed. Really good experience all round.
