Going from banking that took so long to make payments, throw in excessive charges and my life was misery. Starling was the breath of freshness that made my financial life a joy to wake up to. Immediate payments, immediate notifications and balances that always up to date. Oh, and I almost forgot, free £250 overdraft. Join the flock. Reviewed on: 24th February 2023
