You could win £10,000 to help you through university
If you’re starting University this autumn then you’ll appreciate some extra help. As a student today you have to pay a lot more attention to your money than students in the past, especially with the introduction of course fees.
So wouldn’t it be nice to start with £10,000 in your bank account?
Well, that’s what the Halifax has on offer: ten big ones to help you through University. (It’ll certainly help you make friends quickly in Fresher’s Week!)
Not only this, they also have ten runner-up prizes of Dell Inspiron laptops. Each features an AMD® Sempron™ Mobile Technology 3500+ processor (jargon for very fast) and is installed with the latest Windows Vista Home Basic operating system, plus 512MB memory, an 80GB Hard Drive and 14.1" widescreen TFT display.
So how can you get your eager little hands on these superb prizes?
Simple. Just fill in a few details below and you’ll be entered into the prize draw.
Alternatively, visit halifaxstudent.co.uk (you’ll be met by Howard, your host with the most) where you can also enter and find out about their award-winning Student Current Account.
It features the largest interest-free overdraft of any student current account - up to £2,750 in the first-year.
(18 plus and in full time education. Moneyfacts July 2007. Typical 0% EAR. Overdrafts subject to status and credit approval.)
