Advantages: under 16s can get, £50 a week, Widespread

Disadvantages: ..., ..., ..

Im writing this review becuase i believe that the Solo card to great....

What is a 'Solo' card
A solo card is another type of a debit card. It is the sister (related to) the Switch card, and is used like a debit card. Under 16s are allowed to apply for one.

So, Why is a 'Solo' card so Great
I think this is a great carb because you are allowed to apply if you're under 16 (yeah, im only 14 :) ). I used to belong to Abbey National, which are fair enough.. but when i heard of the solo card i did some research. I found that it is almost accept every where, like Master Card. It can not go in the red (you owe the bank money), this means if ur card is stolen only what is in ur bank can be withdrawn. Also, the most someone can withdraw is £50 a week i believe which should be enough for a Under16.. Banks do not charge for this card so it is very nice.

Rates
Natwest give 3.66% APP and Abbey National (which i used to belong to) give 3.4%.
This isnt' much but it more than nothin. I canviced my perents to get me it cuase of this.

Decent amount of information in your opinion. Just check out your spellings and also work out what things are specific to your bank (eg £50 a week) and what things are general (eg no overdraft).

Upto n, how does giving kids an account that doesn't let them overdraw promote irresponsibility?

Sorry Loz, but this is not a VU opinion!

As the others said a bit more info would be good, another good idea is to run it through a spell check before you post. And this miserable lot will always pick up on you using 'text' talk so its best not to use it!!

The start was really good there, have fun. Emma
