Very easy switch

5
Just switched a business account - super easy. They have thought through this process and pre-empted what I might be thinking/need. Reviewed on: 17th March 2022

Intelligent Bank

5

Great account for my new business

5
In 2020, I made the decision to leave my secure staff job and start my business. I looked around for a business bank account and loved the features of the Starling Bank Account. Around the same time, I also heard a podcast interviewing founder, Anne Boden, and I was impressed by her vision. The application process was very easy. I find the app easy to use. I pay a small monthly fee to access the business toolkit to help me prepare and manage my invoices. Reviewed on: 16th March 2022

One word, brilliant

5
Can't fault them. Helpful, personal, clear banking. No problems but so much cheaper. Why be a thief of your own wallet! Reviewed on: 16th March 2022

Fuss free, no nonsense business account

5
I banked with a well-known high Street bank for 50 years. When the pandemic struck I had to apply for a bounce back loan but could only do it through their website. Except it wouldn't accept my account number! Weeks of unanswered phone calls, plus many visits to branches with 3 hour queues where no one could help me anyway.... and I thought 'so much for loyalty'. I found Starling Bank via Google and opened a business account within seconds. They transferred everything from my old bank without fuss. I applied for the bounce back loan online and it was instantly approved. Their banking app is perfect, its not been designed as an addition, it's the way they do business so it's been designed with the user in mind. Intuitive, fast, and fuss free. I've been so impressed I transferred my personal accounts over too. Sorry Lloyd's, should have tried harder! Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Accessible and transparent service

5
I changed business accounts to a starling and keep telling everyone how good it is. I like that the access to my accounts through an app I know when monies are being paid in and can link to my invoices As a small social enterprise it gives me more time to focus on the people we support in the community Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Incredible customer experience

5
Seamless application and smart app. Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Outstanding in every aspect.

5
A a time if massive upheaval and concern during the pandemic, my then bank were floundering with BBL approval status and all sorts of other issues. We transferred to Starling and everything was sorted, resolved and operational in less than 72 hours. New account, cards on way, BBL approval and monies in the account. Amazing, and they have been ever since. We've recommended them to countless business associates. Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Fantastic Business Banking Proposition

5
It is so quick to set up and love the features of the Xero integration. For small business owners, this is the perfect account. Excited about the other features that are coming up shortly, such as the overdraft. Reviewed on: 15th March 2022

Best Business Account

5
Best Business Account in Britain! Reviewed on: 14th March 2022
