Starling Bank Business account reviews (7606)

Easy to use

5
It was easy to set up the business account. The communication with the bank is simple and efficient. I like using the app that does everything I need. Would definitely recommend. Reviewed on: 8th January 2020

Top quality bank

5
It it the best bank I have used can’t fault it so happy I joined Reviewed on: 8th January 2020

Great bank for small business

5
I used Barclays Business Banking for 8 years, but it was never focused on small business. It was overly complex and expensive for my needs, and the technology was outdated. Switching to Starling was quick and easy. The technology is right for the times, the system is easy to use, and there are no fees. Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

Superb service

5
Account opening was a nice and simple process, well guided and clearly communicated by the app Customer service has been brilliant when needed to talk to a real person - well trained, very friendly and UK based - sets a very high standard well beyond others (just cancelled corporate Barclaycard due to dreadful offshore customer experience) The app has been very well thought through with customer experience paramount in its design Good integration with 3rd party apps And to top it all - the debit card card looks exceptional and again, great design and seeing someone thinking differently. Very very impressed Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

Great!

5
It is really the best! Free, no hassle, integration with QuickBooks. Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

Great service

5
Well done to track money in out simply and easily Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

Best business bank

5
Easy to set-up and helpful responses from customer service. looking forward to banking with Starling in 2020 Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

Best bank out there

5
Simple banking system, highly professional team and always looking for innovative partners to assist their business clients. It’s a shame ‘major’ high street banks are going from our towns but easy to see why. May Starling grow from strength to strength and hope with their help, my business will too. Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

Simply brilliant

5
I left Metro Bank as they could not organise a drinking session in a brewery and made it very difficult for customers to bank with them. With Starling, it simply does what it says on the tin. As good as First Direct. Reviewed on: 7th January 2020

Starling Bank...not strictly for the birds!

4
As a busy sole director of a B2B enterprise, Starling Bank has really helped me understand - and as a direct result - grow my business. Full integration with my accounting software, clear on-screen imagery of my money movements and simplicity of transfer of funds from account to account has enabled me to invest more valuable time ON my business developing strategies and tactics for growth rather than IN my business dealing with the tedious (and often incomprehensible!) administrative minutiae . Valuable for me initially as a start-up and now as an existing business, Starling Bank has been a breath of fresh air for me and [almost!] made my banking experiences enjoyable and I look forward to taking Starling Bank with me along what I hope will be a high flying business into the future!
