I already had an account with Barclays since the age of 14 and when I went to uni it automatically turned into a student’s account as that’s where my loan was being transferred to. But then there was a special offer with NatWest for a travel card and other goodies so I opened on with them. Perhaps I was allowed as I didn’t take out an overdraft with NatWest. Maybe they only limit the overdrafts not the actual accounts themselves?
Also very interesting: In need of advice re: paying back student loan How to check my student hmrc loan balance? Should I opt for student loan debt consolidation? How to get a NatWest student loan? Are student current accounts worth opening even if I don’t need an overdraft? Where to search for student bank account offers? What are the best student accounts? What's the student finance (PN1) form? When to open a student account? How can I clear my student account overdraft?
