Auto correct what can I do.

Of course I meant Starling, they were the first challenger bank to offer business accounts as well and I’m very happy so far.

Starling is neat except you need to request a special exemption from them for EVERY payment you send over £25,000.

Only takes them an hour or so to approve it for you, but it gets pretty old having to do it 3-5x per week.

It's actually quite unusual to be making 3-5 payments over £25k in a typical week. Not saying it isn't a real problem for you, but I suspect only a very small fraction of potential users will be bothered by that particular point of friction.

Couldn't you turn off autocomplete or check what you/it wrote before you hit "reply" button?
