Made a slight mistake this month in that I'd changed a direct debit from £300 to £1 due to a cash flow change, but it obviously didn't update in time and the £300 went out today, leaving me £290 over. I noticed and paid it in straight away so it's a matter of hours.

Any idea if a) ill lose then£5 reward and b) pay a fee?

Couldn't find a definitive answer on the website.

    This has happened to me before. I resolved it the same day and it was still within my overdraft limit.

    I still received my £5 and wasn't charged.

    Cool, lets hope so. The only other thing is I don't have a formal overdraft on this account. Hopefully it's like my HSBC one where it doesn't count as an unauthorised overdraft as long as a payment in to clear it is made on the same day.
