Spoke to the ****** idiot at barclays who was convincing me , an IT guy , that the bank account system is such that cannot be prevented from going into a minus and hence charging me 30 pounds each time. Not' the fellas fault , just corporate greed. Can't fight them.

I used to work for the Nationwide - highly reccomend their fairness and honesty.
If only all banks and building societies had half the good morals that the NABS have! -

Of course the system can be prevented from going into a minus and charging you £30. The way to do it is to make sure that the amount of money in your account is greater than the amount of money you are trying to take out of the account.Comment
