Barclays Reserve: what happens if you opt out?

I have never banked with Barclays and I dread to say these words but this may have been asked before :p
If you OPT OUT of the reserve and you exceed your overdraft limit, or have items returned, how much do you get charged? I have tried the usual approach of reading through the charges section plus the FAQ's about the reserve but I don't know the answer.
Over to you guys......I am sure you will know :D
I have not worked for NatWest Bank since February 2009

    We send thugs around to break your legs.

    You get charged £8 per transaction for returned/unpaid items, and £8 for any guaranteed items (cheques, floor limit card purchases).

    I am more on Legal Beagles than CAG but mostly in the Reclaims boards on MSE.
