TSB Kids Accounts Posted by: Peter Montgomerie 31 Jan 2011 8:00pm

We've got freestyle junior accounts for our kids, I just went to the bank today to sign them up for internet banking, I put $10 each a week in and now I want to be able to pay for things like swimming fees, no can do, no "operator" can do internet banking or atm withdrawals on behalf, I'd have to go into a branch everytime I want to withdraw money! I'll be changing banks for them.

with our 2 boys cos that's wher our morgtage is. They are 13 and 10 with the deal age=pocket money with half into bank and half in cash in the hand. This works our cos they can't touch the money for years and we stared them with $100. It's kids banking and a good thing for them to learn stuff through
