Banking For 17Yr Old

[hannah40]

My daughter has a bank account with Barclays . It is a current account but she is unable to make bank transfers because of her age.
Does any one know of any banks current accounts that allow under 18.s to make bank transfers?
She has a part time job so has money going in.
Thanks

Who does she want to make transfers to

i'm not sure that any allow you to make BT. However, you can get 16/17 YO accounts that let you set up DD

if there's a mod around, can you get rid of that? I used the wrong link

TSB Under 19s account allows transfers between family and friends

Natwest uses the PAYM system which might suit

Yes it’s for a friend who has paid for there youth hostel this summer.
I have paid the friend but she thought as she had funds in her barclay account she could have transferred money over.
I phoned Barclays and they said under 18.S can’t do bank transfers so was wondering if that’s all banks.

Settle IOUs by sending payment links, direct from your mobile.
Sitting right next to the person you owe? Settle up with Pay Nearby – no bank details required."

Does she have a cheque book? She could send her friend a cheque.
