Along with the £45 contactless limit, Starling has also raised the limit from £135 to £225 befor you will have to use chip and pin.
Cards linked to savings spaces yesterday, this today.
Once again, well done Starling  :)

    Nice of them to let fraudsters know how much they can spend before it gets declined 🤦‍♂️

    They'd be 100% liable for that fraud though and contactless fraud is negligible anyway.

    Or the account holder could use the location based security feature and minimise the risk  :D

    A fraudster not knowing "how much they can spend before it gets declined " isn't going to prevent a fraudster from trying to use the card anyway. If it works, they're in luck. If it doesn't, they walk away.
