Business bank account

[gashart]

Hi

I had a Natwest Business account for when I ran my own business for 10 years as a sole trader, which was fine, but was offered cash to switch bank accounts, which I did to Co-op. Which frankly turned out to be archaic, but I could deal with it, as I didn't have my business anymore, I'm now just self employed selling, so just paid commission, pay out a few DD's and visa payments mainly fuel etc, but now the Co-op account has now got worse, making it a real chore doing monthly accounts and bank reconciliation.

So I'm on the hunt for a new provider, any recommendations, just need ability for DD, accept weekly Bacs payments in, visa card, good clear app and ability to print of monthly statements, second sub account or something similar for VAT and Tax savings would be of help, oh and free would be great.

Do due the fab recommendations on here for Staring Bank I started my switch last week, as mentioned above by another poster I did have more questions than I expected, but not as hard as mentioned above, mine is a Sole Trader, so perhaps a little easier.

Anyhow, I was approved, switch underway, impressed with the communications so far, have had a look around the App, seems very easy to use. Just waiting for payments out, in and balance to be transferred and that will be it.
