Rows wrong or missing?
Send us the shape of this statement, not its contents. The report below is made in this browser. It keeps where text sits, dates and column headings. Every name, amount, reference and account number is replaced with x and 1, as you can see. Nothing is sent until you send it.
Then email the report to support@statementtocsv.co.uk and say which bank it is from. We’ll add the layout and let you know.

Works with text PDFs that have Date, Description, Paid in / Paid out (or Amount) and Balance columns. Scanned or photographed statements are not supported yet. The samples are fictional test data.
Starling’s app is good at showing spending, but accountants, lenders and letting agents usually ask for statements. Converting the PDF statement gives you a spreadsheet with exactly the figures on that statement, which is what you want when someone else will check them.
Starling’s own download, or the PDF statement?
Starling’s app can also export transactions as a spreadsheet file for a period you choose. If you just want your recent spending in Excel, that is the simplest route. Converting the PDF is better when someone has sent you Starling statements rather than an export, when you need the figures to match the official statements, or when you want the balance check and the whole-year check across many statements.

Working with Starling transactions in Excel
- Strip out Spaces transfers. Filter the Description column for “Space” to see transfers between your main balance and your Spaces, and exclude them from spending totals.
- Split by transaction type. Starling notes the type of each transaction. Keep it in the description and filter on it to separate card payments from transfers.
- Check against the summary. Total the Paid in column with
=SUM(C:C)and compare it with the statement’s summary. The converter will already have told you if they differ.
Support status: tested
We have converted real Starling statements and checked every row against their printed balances. Banks change their statement designs from time to time, so each conversion is still checked: if a future Starling layout doesn’t read correctly, the balance check will show it.

Questions people ask
How do I get a Starling statement into Excel?
Save the PDF statement from the Starling app, convert it on this page and download the CSV for Excel.
Should I use Starling’s own export instead?
For quick personal use, the app’s export is fine. For figures that must match the official statement, convert the PDF statement.
Can I convert a year of Starling statements at once?
Yes. Use “Several statements” to add all twelve. The months are checked to make sure none is missing or duplicated.
