Sometimes students do not read the details of a facility and are thus misled by other folks. When you open a 123 student current account you will automatically be the beneficiary of the overdraft facility. The overdraft allowance of a student depends on his year of study. The following is the breakdown of the overdraft facility:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><tbody><tr><td>Years 1-3<\/td><td>\u00a31,500<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Year 4<\/td><td>\u00a31,800<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Year 5<\/td><td>\u00a3 2,000<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>It must be noted here that regardless of the year the interest will remain zero percent. It should be remembered that the money deposited in your current account is the source of repaying the overdrawn money.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a primary learning also for the students to handle their finances and one must realize its importance. A student will receive the alert anytime you receive an overdraft from your account through your mobile app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bank has under the terms and conditions mentioned the conditions when they are not satisfied with the overdraft drawn by a student and can reduce the limit accordingly. These terms and conditions should be read properly while going on the bank documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-paper-free-features\"><span id=\"paper-free-features\">Paper Free Features<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Santander Bank account gives you provisions for submitting your documents online provides you with your bank statements, and sends information through e-document mode.

They must keep their account private and secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-account-on-course-completion\"><span id=\"account-on-course-completion\">Account on Course Completion<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The foreign student account on completion of the course or after 4 years is automatically converted to the Santander Edge Grad current account. When this happens then the interest-free overdraft facility will reduce each year. It is advised to students to check if their bank starts charging interest and get geared to budget themselves to pay the overdraft before the due date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-features\"><span id=\"other-features\">Other Features<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Santander Account for students helps to give a financial boost to their lives with many other features.
