Switched from HSBC which was truly awful which was surprising as one of the worlds biggest bank’s they’re way behind the times... Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Easy to use, and free

HSBC business account was absolutely woeful. Old fashioned login fob, overly complicated security logins, high fees, bad website. Starling is the opposite of all of that. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Banking as it should be

From the original account set up, I cannot fault Starling. Fast and helpful customer service, responsive feedback to requests, integration with Xero etc. Most importantly - ultra easy to use, sophisticated account and finance management features all on mobile. Fantastic product all round!! Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Making banking easier!

Had a Starling current account and chose them to be my business bank, due to the ease of use and overall intuitive banking. Had no trouble moving bills and payments and when I needed help the online chat was excellent. Reviewed on: 3rd January 2020

Great Bank!!!!
