Desperately want DS to start managing his own money properly. At the moment he just has a young person's savings account, which does not include a debit card, so anytime he wants to order anything online I need to do it for him & he pays me back in cash.
He will (hopefully) be off to Uni in September, so a student bank account would be ideal. However most banks don't seem to allow you to open one until your course is confirmed and you are within 2 months of the start date. Obviously we're not at that point yet.
Don't really want to help him open a bank account now and then have to go through the whole process again in a few months' time.
Anyone else been in this situation & found a solution?
