Starling - Anyway to see debit card number before card arrives in post?

I can see the last 4 digits in Google wallet and in the Starling app.  But the snail mail post is messed up right now, and I need the last 5 numbers for doing a switch.

    I can see my whole debit card number in the app. 
    Select card then select card details…

    That's not possible unless the card is activated, which requires entering the CVV.
    Postal strikes are wreaking havoc though.

    Short of getting in touch with Starling directly and asking them, it would sound like you've answered your own question there. Not much you can do apart from wait for the card to rock up if the app only shows the last 4 digits.
