Not being nosey...ok, I am.
Have been in mine for at least a year and wonder if one day might actually get to have a pound credit in my account, would be great Grin

Me either! although my overdraft is only £300 but we couldn't live off £300 less in a month to pay it off. I have just changed my bank account today online and for some unknown reason they have just offered me a £2400 overdraft! Shock I nearly fell off the chair. I would have loved to have clicked on the yes button but I refrained and kept it at £300 to pay off the one we have when swapping accounts. On the other hand it's nice knowing if we do need to up it theres a good chance we'll get accepted for it.
