Switching from Starling

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has ever switched (for an incentive bonus) from Starling bank?

Is it possible?.. Are there any issues? I read Starling won't allow another account with them for 12 months... is that right?

Thanks for any help.

    Iv'e just switched starling to Lloyds for an incentive with no problems, iv'e heard that you cannot open another account with them for 1 year but i wasn't using it anyway
  • Yes you can switch - why wouldn’t you be able to?

    Yes, Starling won't let you open a new account within 12 months of leaving. That's quite a sensible policy to me. It prevents them having to operate accounts for time wasters who keep coming and going.
