After I went through the pain of setting up a new bank account (a post regarding which is to follow) it now appears HSBC is backtracking (via El Reg) on their plans to charge graduates for their overdrafts. Thanks Ben for the heads up.

While HSBC will no doubt retain many customers that would otherwise have left due the charges, I’m pretty pissed off that they tried it in the first place; I simply can’t believe they were so willing to alienate such a high earning potential group. Rest assured that this Graduate will keep his business elsewhere.
