Natwest student account overdraft :@

Well a lot of banks do. HSBC and Halifax both do. States in their T&Cs that you are only allowed 1 student account. And it seems as though you got a HSBC and Halifax one...

Hi,

Basically after 1 month of trying, my Natwest student account has finally been opened.

Sorry, but that's rubbish. I've been very careful when opening the accounts to make sure - there's no law saying someone can only have one student account.

I think you'll find there is - as it also has tax benefits......

One student a/c per student but then you can always have a mainstream account as well I guess.

not already a university student but I have a confirmed place at uni, starting in september, however they already knew that when I first applied and had no problems - i know other banks tend not to have problems with this too.

You're also ineligible for any of the student incentives that go with the account as it is outside the period in which they are on offer. so no rail card either.
