Student Accounts

Hi guys
Just was wondering when the student accounts page will be updated on the main site?

Been having a look round myself and the HBOS seems to have the best deal in terms of a large overdraft - always handy when a student!

But anyone got any other suggestions for a student bank account?

    Don't go with Halifax/Bank of Scotland... they are VERY stingy with their overdrafts! I struggled to get £1500 out of them!

    Lloyds TSB are excellent, but wait until August to open any student accounts - freebies become available then, and the banks are less stringent then!! :)
