What banks show card details in app?

Options
I'm away on holiday but want to take advantage of some of the switches. Are there any bank accounts I can open that show the card number in the app? I just opened another Nationwide account in hopes of using it to switch only to find you can't see the card number in the app and I won't be home for a while to receive the card!

    Lloyds Bank, Bank of Scotland & Halifax also show them. 

    Royal Bank of Scotland, NatWest and Ulster Bank do as well. 

    I have a feeling that Santander do, but I don’t currently have them to check.

    For free, non-judgemental debt advice, try: Stepchange or National Debtline. Beware fee charging companies with similar names.

    Monzo do, but I think you have to have received the card and activated it first.

    If you want a couple of burners for switching. You can open a main Chase account with the card linked to it and then create additional current accounts within the app once signed up. Leave the debit card linked to main account and use the additionals for switching.

    Where are you on holiday? If it is outside of the UK then an application may not be valid and completing it may result in the account being closed and you earning yourself a CIFAS marker which would cause you major issues. Most applications require you to be legally resident and physically in the country at the point of application and banks will be able to tell from IP details.

    BIB UK Residence is invariably specified, but I’ve never seen any reference to needing to be physically present at the point of application.
