A tip for you!

It’s important for you to truly understand how overdraft works.  An overdraft functions by being directly linked to your current account, enabling you to borrow money seamlessly through your everyday banking transactions. This eliminates the need to juggle multiple accounts or transfer funds between them.

 Acting as a revolving facility, your credit automatically replenishes as you repay it, making it an ideal solution for addressing temporary cash flow issues, unexpected expenses, or emergencies.With an overdraft, you have the flexibility to set your “borrow limit,” dictating the additional amount you can spend beyond your available funds. 

This gives you complete control over your borrowing, allowing you to manage your finances effectively and stay within a manageable limit. Say goodbye to worrying about overspending – an overdraft ensures you have financial freedom and security!
