you will normally find all teh banks clammouring for your account when you go to uni, sit back, collect the info then make a reasoned choice as to whose set of benefits suis you the best.
He has paid £800 in charges from going over the overdraft accidently. Normally by a few pence. I've done my research on banks, I'm just a bit put off by the possibilities of going over the overdraft and getting charges that amount to such an amount. However I'm more sensible with my money than him so I dont have too much to worry about I guess.

As for him getting his money back, he can do his own research
