Starling Bank Business account reviews (7604)

Forward thinking & easy

5
We moved all our business accounts to Starling after losing confidence in the old banks and their unnecessary charges, environmental waste and slow-to-adapt policies...out with the old and in with the new! Starling makes everything simple, quick and easy, without skimping on what is important. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Complex made super simple

5
A bank for now, not one that survives on the coattails of what's been. It's clear Starling have invested every ounce of their being on removing complexity, speaking simply and creating an outstanding customer experience. They care about their customers and answer any queries promptly. This should be the norm, but past experience tells me it truly isn't, which is why Starling deserve the plaudits. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Never answer phone calls

See above it’s really very simple!! Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Easy business banking

5
I highly recommend Starling for simple business banking. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Switched banks and never looked back

5
I was with a high street bank and the online banking features were basic and wholly unreliable resulting in late wages and bill payments - and I was charged a monthly fee for the pleasure! Starling has been brilliant, feature rich banking app, quick support when needed and I would highly recommend them. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Great service and great value

5
As a sole trader I need to be careful with costs, so I switched from a high Street bank business account at a saving of a few pounds per month. The app is easy to use, tells me immediately when I receive payments and allows me to pay in cheques. Great! Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Best online bank

5
Forced to open a Starling Account after the Nationwide started closing all its Business Investor Accounts after 26 years use. Starling's online app facilities have transformed by business bank operations for convenience and efficiency. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

Excellent service

5
After a terrible experience with two other major banks, Starling genuinely seems to care about my little sole trader business and wanted my custom. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

The best thing to happen since sliced bread

5
I can't tell you how forward thinking Starling is. Our first profitable challenger bank, and a team taking on big, big corporates. Starling are stunning. What Santander push to me as innovative updates, Starling has had from the get-go as the norm. Constantly impressed by everything they have to offer and more. Reviewed on: 24th March 2021

No brainer

5
From speed of opening to the efficient app I love everything about Starling. When travelling pre-Covid and paying in currency it was wonderful to see Euro and USD transactions appearing on my app while still waiting for till receipts to be printed. No fees and excellent service. Bounceback loan was also handled seamlessly. Love the spaces for saving for VAT, corp tax, large bills, projects and dividends. What's jot to like?
