    Extending lloyds tsb student overdraft?
    The website says you can extend your 'tiered overdraft', after 7-9 months to £1000, which I did in march, and to £1500 from month 10, when is this month 10? and will i definitely be able to extend? thank you!

    I know overdrafts are awful but i just need some extra money before i go back to uni!

    i had no problems with lloyds, no questions asked going from £1000 to £1500 but the first time extending it they asked me why i just said i was a bit short on the months rent and they were fine with it

    Very easy. I've had to go there twice to get mine extended and both times, all they did was take my card and go off to phone someone for a minute or two and it was extended there and then. No questions asked.

    I didn't even get asked why I needed the extra overdraft, nor did they ring anyone. The woman just went "Is an extra £500 good for you?" and just increased it there and then, no questions asked, lol.
