Abbey Student Accounts give-away ends soon

Abbey Student Accounts is giving away £50 an hour, on the hour, every day for the whole of September, in the ‘Money for Nothing' prize draw which is available to both customers and non-customers. This £50 prize mirrors the £50 cash bonus that new Abbey Student Account holders get when they open a Student account.

In addition to a £50 cash bonus, the Abbey Student Account also offers:

interest free overdraft of up to £2,000, which is tiered to help students manage their finances over the duration of their course

2.00% in-credit interest available on balances up to £500

24 hour online banking

Gillian Almond, Head of Abbey Current Accounts said: "The prize-draw has been running for three weeks and we have had an amazing response, with over 25,500 people throwing their hat into the ring for some free cash.

"We know that money is pretty hard to come by when you are a student, which is why we provide £50 in cash and a very good in-credit interest rate on our Student Account. There is also an interest free overdraft to help with initial outgoings, or unexpected living costs."

Gillian Almond added: "This free prize draw is a great opportunity for students and others to get some extra and unexpected money into their back pocket, and highlight the great value Abbey Student Account, at a time when money tends to be tight."
