overdraft

Nov 24, 2006 5 Replies

As to my previous post the financial difficulties I am having due to the missing cheque, I am thinking of going to the bank in the morning my local branch to ask for an increase in my overdraft. I have not asked for two years since i was refused. My credit rating is good will the manager be able to just do this there and then at his discretion or do they do a credit check and I may be refused. If they do a credit check I would rather do it by phone any advise is much appreciated



Many Thanks emoloo



They can give you an overdraft there and then. Explain your predicament to them and any reasonable person would accommodate your request. If not, change your bank.

Ever feel like a mouse has run off with your only peice of cheese???? : ) I am unable to go to my local bank tommorow to ask for an overdraft and I cannot ring because I dont know my security codes, new ones in the post.

Still fingers crossed it could be worse, I still may get paid!

If you do end up being charged for going overdrawn you may like to read this:

Don't worry about not knowing your security codes. It will just mean they have to make a lot more effort to be confident it is you calling.

You may not get past the drone on the other end of the phone without this information.
