"Does what it says on the tin"

5
I know, I know, it's a lazy cliché but that's exactly what I want from my business bank. To do what I need it to do, quickly, intuitively and without fuss. It's a year on from my last review and the sentiment remains he same. The few times I've needed help, online support has been on-the-ball, and sorted my query within a short time. No lengthy waits on a phone playing awful "musac". Fees are an important element to me as a small business and their continued support for free business banking is a winner in my book. But, to be fair, I'd even accept (small!) transactional charges for the rest of benefits they've provided me. I can only thank NatWest for dumping their small business accounts unceremoniously and forcing my hand to look around. I haven't looked back! Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Business bank switch

5
Not only was this the most seamless transition to a new bank but it also turns out that the entire interface is ultra user friendly from login to whatever it is you want to do when you're in. Bin the old tired monopolies and go Starling. I'll be switching my joint personal next from Barclays Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Best yet

This bank takes the stress out of all banks and Building societies I have been with over 40 years. Makes day to day easier Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

It isn't broken

5
when I opened my account with Starling the whole process was claimed to take around 20 minutes. I was very sceptical but pleasantly proved right when I applied and the setup was a breeze. I have since switched to a business account and the service has been faultless with no loss of service and amazingly fast processing times. To recommend Starling is as they say a no brainer, it works so doesn't need fixing. Great app that lets me know within a split second when I spend or receive money leaving me more time to get on with the important bit of earning an income. A fresh, modern bank that is suitable for today's life. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Awesome bank never been so in control of the finances

Love being in so much control of what comes in to what goes out. Never had any issues since I got the account was so impressed I changed my personal account after being with that bank since the age of 7. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Superb bank

We have banked with three different banks in recent years, none of them come remotely close to the amazing services offered by Starling. Definitely the best bank out there, in my opinion. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

. Starling Bank. Superbly smooth and secure process.

5
Simple but robust and absolutely crazy to look anywhere else. Access with secure processes is a no brainier. As a sole trader I had to set up a personal bank account in order to go through the security processes.this was done in less than 20 minutes sat at home and my personal bank account was set up. Then in less than 15 minutes my Business Bank Account was set up including the debit cards. Thank you Starling. Starling really is the smart way to bank for business. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021

Great bank, app fabulous

5
I love using starling business banking, the app is great let’s me know what I’m spending and when customers pay there invoices. The feature for keeping track of receipts and spending categories is a great quick reference tool which you can easily compare with previous months. Reviewed on: 18th February 2021
