    I would be extremely surprised if you would find any bank that gave you an overdraft as an EU student with an irregular income, I'm afraid.
    Yeah I thought so. Oh well, I'd rather not spend money I don't actually have, maybe it's better this way. :D

    I don't see how something that's a hassle can be convenient at the same time. The best way of reducing the hassle to the minimum would be to stay where you are and let your bank become TSB. If you decide you don't like how it operates after the split then that's the time to move your account, not now.
    Fair enough, I'll follow your suggestion and stay put for now.
    Thanks everyone for the help. :)

    Sorry to bump this thread but I've a question.
    I just received my new debit card, the account number and sort code are the same as before while the card number is of course different.
    What about my BIC and IBAN? They should remain the same as they're affected only by branch and account number correct?
