There’s a better way

LAUNCHING A NEW BUSINESS IN 2020, MIKE PAGE NEEDED A BANK ACCOUNT THAT COULD MAKE THINGS EASIER FOR HIM

SWITCHING business current accounts was “the simplest thing ever.”

Moving business and personal current accounts in the middle of a pandemic took almost no effort, says this business owner.

“It was the simplest thing ever really,” says Mike Page. “Everything was transferre­d over automatica­lly – so there’s nothing to worry about.”

Mike had a lot on his plate in 2020. He had just launched his new business, T&T Eco, selling innovative ecological cleaning products. The company employs four staff and was seeing real demand.

But the bank he was using for his business current account – and his personal current account too – just wasn’t working for him.

“I wasn’t happy with the services, the charges and the lack of a human face behind the bank,” Mike explains. “I really wanted to have a better experience. I decided to try a new bank account. In fact, I did the same for my personal account and switched that too. It was a very simple process.”

‘THEY DID IT ALL FOR ME’

By using the Current Account Switch Service Mike had peace of mind that there was a service that he could trust, which was particular­ly important when he was so busy during the Covid-19 crisis. “We used the switch service, so my direct debits and standing orders could be transferre­d over straight away, which they actually did for me.

“The service was free – and once I opened my new account, the switch was automatic.”

‘IT SHOULD BE A PRIORITY’

Mike believes finding the best business current account should be a goal for other business owners: “I think it absolutely should be everybody’s priority and responsibi­lity to get the best deal and service out of a bank that they can. The switch service is so tried and tested that there really is nothing to stop you.”

Banks are not all the same.

Switching current accounts means you can find the best bank and level of service – such as mobile banking – that’s right for you and your needs.

Just look out for the Current Account Switch Guarantee when choosing a new bank.
