Bank account confusion

Options
Hello, recently I decided to change bank accounts. I'd like an account with no overdraft, use of online banking and the ability to use it in shops, online etc. Right now I'm with Nationwide but would consider moving to another bank. I'm sixteen and I'm just about to start college in the coming september, would that make a difference?
Thanks in advance.

    Nationwide offer a "young person's Flexaccount" but not a "student account". Most major banks have a student account with a range of "studenty" benefits, though not all student accounts or benefits (eg overdrafts) are available until 18.

    Up to you. Search the market and choose the best offer.
