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

Perfect experience

Fantastic efficient service with no charges

5
Switching to Starling for my business was the best decision I’ve even made around bank accounts. It was fast and simple and unlike my previous business account it always works, there is no monthly charge, the app is a dream to use and the quick cheque upload facility are all fantastic. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

best app ever

5
Great bank, beautifully designed app (both aesthetically and functionally), brilliant and fast communication both digitally and with actual real people! Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Banking made easy

5
My business was with a well known high street chain. Fine for 18 months then a monthly charge we imposed, with a lowturnover of around 100 transactions a year but a decent sum of money through the account I couldn’t see the VFM. An effortless switch to Starling with (at long last) a “contactless” debit card and one of the best Apps out there has me singing like a veritable Starling Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Just makes banking easy

5
As a sole trader, you just want things to 'work'. Starling banking just makes things easy - transactions, saving, integration with accounting software. Saves so much time and effort so I can focus on the business. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

So much functionality for free

5
Lloyds Bank's Business account has empowered my startup to operate effectively. There are no fees which means for a startup with little funds, i can focus on building my business without worrying about costs and charges. Their app and updates are also very helpful and informative for keeping up to date with all the recent developments in the business world. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022

Excellent bank app

Easy to use via your mobile Smart phone. Full control over your card and secure. Reviewed on: 24th March 2022
