Review of the Starling Bank, Business Account:

A bank worth doing business with

5
I moved my business account over from Cooperative. I've already got a personal account and a joint account with my wife from Starling - there was nowhere else I was going to take my business. You get the same features as a personal account plus some, the integrations with accounting software make everything immediate and hands-free and all of your information is available through a mobile app that can use biometric ID instead of remembering *another* super-secure password for your business. It's a load off - one less thing for a small business owner to worry about. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Stop pestering me

Dear Starling, Thank you for your email. No I do not want to help you win an award this year. Would you like to help me with my issues? No. So I shall reciprocate in kind. You suggest you won the award last year, I see no record of this. Why you lie? why? Stop asking me to vote. Stop emailing me. Just sort out my issues and leave me alone. The account and the customer service are awful Reviewed on: 1st April 2023
