    It seems to have been just a different way of displaying things - giving me a wak up call!

    Bank of Scotland have been reasonable with their charges - they very quietly stopped charging for rejected direct debits at the same time as they introduced a daily fee for an arranged overdraft. As long as you are in an arranged overdraft, there is no charge.

    Good, glad it worked out, ignore the put downers:)

    I think, ultimately, the best thing for everybody with a current account to do is to:

    - manage their account proactively
    - stay in credit
    - make sure all payments are covered and simply not give the bank the chance to reject a payment, levy a charge etc.

    Then we can all live happily ever after.
