"Already have a NatWest student account? We’ll automatically upgrade you to our Graduate account in the July of your final year of graduation."
So, maybe not the 1st, but some point next month it'll change. Not sure about the overdraft but I'm in the same boat so I'll pop in tomorrow and let you know what the deal is.

Ah cool, I know the Graduate Account has the increased overdraft, but whether that becomes available immediately or not they dont make clear.
I'm paying my rent from it for two months and repaying it when I receive my deposit.

just a random add on , does any one know if this will happen with an HSBC account and if so is there a higher overdraft facility ?
They do not do it automatically.
I graduated last year and they moved me to a grad account automatically. My overdraft stayed the same. After about a month of trying to get them to increase it, they still hadn't and I gave up
Yep, just phoned them and I'll need to request it at the end of June beginning of July.
I wonder how long it will take..

Shouldn't take more than a few minutes for someone to click the correct button, its just encouraging someone to actually do it.
I tend to arrange a meeting in person with a manager or senior customer blah blah whatever person, and after the meeting evereything I require has been done. Only way to work with banks is to make sure its all done then and there, else things drag, or get lost, or get done wrong.

They don't always automatically change.
My girlfriends changed over straight away whilst I went in, gave them my graduation certificate and all the details so they could up my OD to £2k from £1400. The helpful lady said we will do that this week, didnt. Went in again a week later, still didn't do it.
11 months later and I am still on the student account, doesn't bother me as I get an extra year interest free big overdraft
Like Kristoph said, why change? Just say nothing and hope you get what I have, another year of interest free OD!

I think you'll be on the graduate overdraft, only without the overdraft increase.
If I don't request the increase it'll remain at £1,500 interest free for another year and become a graduate account.

It hasn't changed name on my statements or online banking, where as my girlfriends and few friends have. bit odd!
