All the basics for free

As far as I'm concerned, Starling's business account gives a small business owner everything they need from a bank with no fees. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023

Straightforward and it just works

5
We've had a business account for our limited company for over four years. For anyone with straightforward needs Starling is an absolute winner. Reviewed on: 10th March 2023

Great bank for sole trader, but could do more

4
I created a sole trader account with Starling almost a year ago after reading many rave reviews. I also bought their bookkeeping software for only £7 a month. So far I'm happy with it. I've been able to consolidate many functions within it, such as invoicing, accounting, etc. Much more organised and saves a lot of time. I only find it a shame that you can't mark invoices as part-paid, nor is there any credit card or interest-accrued saving accounts. Apart from that, I'm having a great experience with no huge issues!

Simply Brilliant!

5
Excellent service from initial application through to servicing my account and resolving queries. Easy to use app and all the features a good business bank needs. Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

Great Bank for Startups

5
We've been using Starling Bank now for a couple of years. Really refreshing to have such a service available. When starting a new business, seeing other more traditional banks with monthly fees as a minimum, plus other areas you would be charged is not a way to bring in new business owners as customers. Cash flow is tight. Hold off on the fees and you will gain from this type of client in the medium to longer term. Cannot fault Starling. Setting up an account is easy. Everything is through their app, customer service is friendly and responsive and I can get everything done quickly at any hour. Superb. Reviewed on: 9th March 2023

Easy

5
Just brilliant service by chat and set up. Love it. Reviewed on: 7th March 2023

Amazing at responding and offers for small business

Starling is 10 x better than any high street bank. They are up to date with what small businesses need support with. Reviewed on: 7th March 2023
