The easiest and the best

It took about 48 hours to set up a Limited Company and open a business bank account with Tide. The speed and simplicity was frankly, breathtaking . Reviewed on: 17th February 2021

Simply simple

The model that every bank should be following. The friendliest platform that I use, the fees are fair and when I have asked questions, I have had immediate feedback. Long may our relationship last! Reviewed on: 16th February 2021

Avoid

Avoid, they'll lock your account and hold onto the funds in the account. Consider seriously whether you want to risk loosing funds and late paying staff Reviewed on: 1st February 2021

Easy, Helpful Great

5
It is a great app, with ease to do banking but also it is really great how you can set up a company for free. I am hoping to make money for my company without spending and only spend money once it has come in. Tide makes this possible whereas most other business banks don't. Can't wait to use Tide more to help my business grow Reviewed on: 28th January 2021

Failed bounce back loans

2
Tide was ok and on a decent path. Then messed customers around with bounce back loans. Makes difficult to recommend. Will probably switch to Starling who at least don’t charge fees Reviewed on: 27th January 2021
