Reply from Starling Bank Hi there! We're very sorry to hear you lost your card abroad, this can be a very worrying situation. You are able to order a new card and set it up on your mobile wallet. The team can also request a manual transfer, if you need access to the money in an emergency. Again we apologise for the experience you received. Team Starling Response date: 7th April 2024

Not had any problems , great bank , like the fact you can open savings pots and label them all different things without actually having to apply to open it as a separate account ..
