I Have A Problem

I am currently a customer with RBS with a student account with OD and have a savings acc with them. I applied for an interest paying current account with them, but they seem to always refer my applications to the "lending department" for a decision, I have tried almost every bank to get there most basic account and I keep being refused.
I know the most basic account dont do a credit search but only an ID check. So i have no idea why i am being declined is there anyway i can find a reason that banks have to decline me.

Your student account is a current account. Why do you want another one?
Also, the "basic bank account" which does not do a credit search is a RBS Key Account, not their Interest Paying Current Account.0 -
I wanted it to pay bills and so etc.
My problem is I keep getting refused for a basic account with no credit facilities with every bank .0 -

you need to inform this to the higher authorities of the bank ..... you have the rights to know why they are restricting you to have an account ......0
