Refused a current account without an overdraft

Wow, I didn't think my credit history was that bad.

They've offered me a cash account without a Visa card, which is no good to me.

The only thing I can think of is referral charges for unauthorised overdrafts, but they have charges on the cash account too for returned direct debits.
