    This would be better placed in the current account section of the site.

    It will depend on who you bank with, what account you have.

    Whilst I can't talk for others, I seem to remember having to go into my bank to sort this out when I was old enough. In some cases banks may change it automatically without the need for you to go in.

    As you are a new user, take time to have a look around the site as you will find there are many boards - your question on this occasion is in the wrong place.

    Thanks daveboy and pezzep. I'm sure this thread will be moved but how old do you have to be to get a debit card ? @pezzup how old are you including the months ?
