morning

2021-01-22T11:56:35.023Z

my accountant is plugging http://starlingbank.com for business banking anyone have experiences with them?

alexlynham 2021-01-22T11:57:06.023100Z

i use them

alexlynham 2021-01-22T11:57:40.023200Z

my take is that they are Just Fine, but it was a low-key faff to get it linked to FreeAgent

alexlynham 2021-01-22T11:57:48.023300Z

i hear that linking e.g. Tide is easier

alexlynham 2021-01-22T11:58:07.023400Z

cos you'll have to set all that up

alexlynham 2021-01-22T11:58:19.023500Z

but now it's all linked up it's p seamless, idk

alexlynham 2021-01-22T11:58:22.023600Z

2021-01-22T11:58:38.023900Z

well that's good to hear

2021-01-22T11:58:50.024300Z

wouldn't want to be alone on the bleeding edge

alexlynham 2021-01-22T12:00:40.024400Z

like i say, check your accounting software to make sure it's got API links etc

2021-01-22T12:01:35.024600Z

we use FreeAgent too

2021-01-22T12:39:27.025500Z

I have business accounts in Monzo, Starling and Tide. I like Starling the most out of the three.

Starling seems to be the most stable and mature out of new wave of banks. eg they have better business plan than just trying to push premium accounts to customers

Conor 2021-01-22T13:26:16.026600Z

I use Starling, I've not had any complaints (also it doesn't cost anything). There's no FreeAgent integration (AFAIK) though, if that's important to you. Edit: There apparently is a FreeAgent integration, but it doesn't work for me :man-shrugging:

like i say, it was a pain, and took some pissing about in their FAQs

alexlynham 2021-01-25T09:40:40.031100Z

and then there was a delay before it started working

Conor 2021-01-22T13:27:02.026700Z

Wait, you can enable a bank feed? How do you do it?

2021-01-22T13:27:18.027Z

there is one - I use it!, it’s in marketplace

alexlynham 2021-01-22T13:27:26.027200Z

yeah i use it too

alexlynham 2021-01-22T13:27:39.027400Z

it was a pain to set up but it does work

Conor 2021-01-22T13:32:57.027600Z

They kept that one quiet

Conor 2021-01-22T13:33:21.027800Z

It just says linking failed when I try, how odd

dharrigan 2021-01-22T16:38:41.028700Z

Did I recall there is someone here working for Swirrl?

alexlynham 2021-01-22T16:40:55.028800Z

you want one of mssrs rick & ric

alexlynham 2021-01-22T16:41:04.028900Z

djm 2021-01-22T16:47:35.029100Z

2021-01-22T16:48:03.029300Z
