  1. She would have to have a cash card but the solo card is sometimes issued on bank accounts .


  2. natwest have a bank account from age of 11

  3. yes as my neice and nephew both have nat west accounts

  4. I think some people on here have got confused.  A debit card is different to a credit card.  I have an account which is a solo account which I can use practically anywhere and there is no overdraft facility, so therefore no debt!

  5. no i do not think so

  6. no think she would have to be sixteen

  7. Yes you can there was an article in the paper that day saying that Lloyds TSB are giving debit card to 10 year old.

  8. Yes she can.

    Set up a checking account with you as the (forgot the word for it) legal gaurdian so to speak and her as the minor account holder. Order a debit card for that account, all you have to do is sign it and give it to her, and make sure she doesn't overdraw!!!

  9. nope, you cant get one untill ure eighteen, you can have a bank card, but you cant pay with it, only to take money out.

  10. you can set up a current account with any bank to put money in, different banks have different policies about what age they give a debit cards out. There should not be too many problems as debit cards use the payers money not borrowing it.

  11. Yes you can. I work for the Halifax and our 11-15 yr account offers a visa electron debit card that can be used in shops and to take the money out at a cashpoint. Natwest also offers debit cards on it 11-15 account.

  12. i'm pretty sure, i've known some pretty young people to have one. it might have to be a joint account to your account though.

  13. Books-http://hudzila.org/

  14. i think hsbc do it?

    but it may be 13

    have a look.

  15. Yes, if it's their account they can have a debit card....

  16. she cannot have a visa debit card because it is possilbe to go overdrawn with them and it is illegal for under 18s to have credit.

    she might get an electron card.... try halifax for them.
