Can you withdraw cash if you have a overdraft facility?

Silly question i suppose but just making sure.

Ive just been accepted for a £1000 overdraft with A+L and am hoping to withdraw most of that from the cash machine.

Cheers :beer:

  • I have a £5000 overdraft with them and you could draw it all if you go into the bank. I think the max at a cashpoint is £300/day.

    Well this is my first post as have always been a lurker and never a poster.

    Yes you can withdraw money from your overdraft from a cash machine, but not to sure it would let you take out the £1000 in a day as most have a limit of either £300 or £500 depending on what your limit has been set to by your bank.

    I know this is none of my business, but why are you wanting to use the whole of your overdraft? Its an expensive way to borrow.
    Time is a path from the past to the future and back again. The present is the crossroads of both. :cool:

    Maybe the person's overdraft is interest-free (i.e. student account).

    Assuming its one of the Premier accounts, dont forget that you will have to pay in £500 a month to avoid the underfunding fee.
