Hi 

I've no direct experience of Starling, but the subject has come up before on this forum.

From memory, Starling use a UK IBAN which can't be accepted by the likes of Suma and Iberdrola in Spain - direct debits can't be done.

Myself and many others on this forum use Wise - who use a Belgian IBAN to get around the problem.

Cheers 

Steve
