  • I'd be careful with overdraft extensions. It may look like a good idea now but come Jan when a large chunk of your loan gets eaten up by it you'll be in a worse situation.
  • Can I be nosy and ask what you've been given, if anything, in the way of grants and loans and things per term?
  • I personally ger about £30-£40 a week after rent which isnt much but I can live off that, and havent touched my overdraft at all(£700 in my main current, and £500 in my student account)

    Are you young ie 18 as a lot of people I know who just left home have major trouble surviving as they are used to luxuries.
