Student Bank Benefits
If you have can you reply down below and tell me if the bank is worth it or not depending on the benefits? I'm stuck between HSBC and Natwest right now in terms of benefits and accounts so.

Other natwest benefits include:

If you're leaning towards NatWest, then go for that.

Regarding HSBC, I believe they have a history of offering more perks around the start of the academic year, but on a time-limited basis. For example, they offered £125 cash (subject to conditions) for accounts opened between 15/8/2024 and 30/9/2024 [source]. I can't see anything to indicate that they did that this year, though.
