    these days the banks expect you to pay in so much every term so that may be youre only obstical.

    note the comparison "Is there anything in your terms and conditions to stop them opening a student account with another bank too?" for each bank.

    I doubt they would let you have two students account if at all with the same bank, BUT I could not see why they would not open another standard Current Account/Basic Account as long as you pass any further credit checks.

    No chance.

    Most banks will allow you to have a student and a non-student account if you want a second account.
