    You could always try getting a Mbna/Virgin card and hope they give a limit large enough to allow a SBT.If its paid back withing the specified time then you wont incur any interest.

    or try Egg.

    I'm a bit ignorant when it comes to this because of only ever got small overdraft extensions of £500 now and again over the phone.

    Would you suggest actually going to a branch with evidence of my other savings and ask for a £3,000 overdraft extension?

    I mean can you not show whoever you need to your ISA statements? It might be worth checking. Does the 'proof' you need *have* to be £3k in a current account?
