LONDON, November 13, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Students all across the country are now full swing into their
first semester of the new academic year.
Particularly for first year students, it's an exciting,
butterfly inducing time - but it can be a pretty stressful time too
as they look forward to the academic year ahead. Will I be able
to cope with the workload? Am I getting on with my housemates? Do I
have the right bank account for my needs?
We can't answer those first two questions but when it comes to
banking, a student bank account from NatWest is definitely top of
the class. Here are just a few of the benefits of signing up to a
student current account with us:
Mobile banking: Manage your money on the go, whether down
the pub or in the gym, mobile banking lets you organise your
finances in minutes.
Online Banking: Save time and the environment with online
banking and paperless statements. Our customers also enjoy 24/7
support.
Overdraft: For many students, just knowing they have a
financial safety net eases their financial worries considerably.
NatWest offers interest free overdrafts of up to £2,250 in the
first year (Term 1: up to £500, Term 2: up to £750, Term 3: up to
£1000), up to £1,250 in their second year, £1,500 in their third,
£1,750 in their fourth and £2,000 in their fifth.
Tastecard Membership: When cash gets tight, one of
the first things to go is eating out, so here's a treat: get two
for one meals or 50% off your food bill at thousands of eateries
across the UK. You will need to register for Online Banking and
paperless statements if you want to sign up for this tasty
offer.
Emergency cash: Every now and then disaster strikes and
when it does NatWest is there to help. If your card is lost or
stolen you can still get up to £300 in cash from a NatWest student
account as long as there is at least £25 in your account and you
are a telephone or online banking customer. If you haven't signed
up for either then you can still get £60 emergency cash.
We'll also offer free day-to-day banking, a Visa debit card, a
budget calculator, fraud alerts and a whole lot more.
