In line with new rules, UBL UK does not charge an unarranged overdraft fee. However, fees detailed in the Personal Banking Schedule of Charges will still apply for all returned payments as a result of not having cleared funds in your Account. These returned payment fees may place your Account into an unarranged overdraft with any negative balances subject to unarranged overdraft interest charges being applied so it is important that you ensure there are sufficient funds in your Account to cover all payments.
Details of unapproved overdraft charges are detailed in the Personal Banking Schedule of Charges.
