Santander works v. well with FreeAgent. My business account is very old though (2007/8). Got personal Starling and keep thinking of moving business as their service and app are really great (eg when you need to confirm who you are - the app autogenerates bank letter! )

It seems that transferring your business account to Starling Bank could be an attractive option, given your positive experience with Santander and FreeAgent, as well as the excellent service and features of the Starling Bank app. Personally, I've been using Starling Bank for many years, notably to put all the money I earn playing pokies on the best paying online casinos that you can find on https://auspokiesguide.com/pokies/best-paying/. The automatically generated bank letter for identity verification is a valuable feature that guarantees the security of your account. Before making a decision, compare the benefits and fees of the two banks to determine which one best suits your business needs.Originally posted by newbea View PostSantander works v. well with FreeAgent.

I’m with Santander, no fees for anything, tiny amount of interest paid for their linked savings business account (instant access), I don’t use an app, only the web portal no problem. It also generates files (qif) for my FreeAgent account. No complaints at all, but if I had to move I’d go with Starling, not heard a bad word about them. I also use their api at my current gig and their tech support is superb.Comment
