I don’t believe so but I’m hoping they will change this in future.

Has starling started to accept returning customers? I wish to open a new account with them - I had one back in 2023

It feels like Chase, the only difference is in theory Starling have the capability.

Luckily, I still received an old design :star_struck:
Just name and numbers are printed in glossy style :smiling_face:

I mentioned this above but it’ll be April before new cards are issued according to their FAQs: Starling Customer Service

Fewer new account signups than anticipated, or someone found some more boxes in a cupboard maybe!

How many would go back to using Starling as their main bank?

I’m surprised they’ve not released the block.

I’m still waiting for Chase to make the necessary changes to allow people back.

I’m waiting to go back. A very no nonsense bank with everything I needed in one place.

Immediate notifications, Spaces on its own tab, upcoming bacs and direct debits top of the feed, analytics and the option to exclude transfers.

They lacked a decent bill splitting ability but that’s no major.

I’ve not seen any new sortcodes for them, maybe that’s part of the problem? Do they have additional sortcodes available thus the limitations of letting old customers back?

I’d probably use them as my main for a while again.

know they have both the ‘original’ code starting in the ‘60’ range (which is the one I’ve got from them) but also another block starting in the ‘04’ range

Does anyone have an account using their 04 sort code? Are they using it?

Don’t think they’ve ever launched it for 04.
