Student bank accounts?

Options
I'm just looking around and trying to find the best deal for new students (like myself) however I'm not seeing much difference between them...

The only major different is the incentives.. Does anyone have a finite list of the best ones (or anyones for that matter)...

Cheers,

Miles

  • By far the best incentive out there is the 5 year young persons railcard offered by NatWest.

    As you say, there's not much difference between them so it depends on your likely useage (e.g. no point having a better in-credit interest rate if you're never in credit!)

    I've had a Smile student account for 4 years and they've been brilliant (If you can put up with a pink cheque book :p )

    Maybe you do now, but you'll be selling it half way through the year to cover the cost of the beer at the students' union...
