That's bad. Especially is the limit is around $1000. Asking most of my friends how much they had in their accounts, adn the answers ranged from �500 to �1000. In the red. Half of them were over their overdraft limits too. Ah, to be a student in the UK is a tough thing indeed.<P>Over here, we get chared "disloyalty fees" if we withdraw money using a cash machine other than our own bank (or one they have a deal with). Not all banks do it, and their are arguments about it being illegal or something, so it might change.<P>------------------<BR>"A fully functioning, cybernetic, technologically advanced team of superheroes... and NOBODY'S got a flashlight?"<BR>- Polly Ester;<I> Samurai Pizza Cats</I> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Hobbes</b> <br /><small>Member # 138</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2000,5,27,13,31,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">June 27, 2000</span> <span class="timeformat-0">01:31 PM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> I have an account at Navy Federal Credit Union.
