Overdraft

A current account may allow you to spend more than your available balance – an ‘arranged overdraft’ – for an agreed limit and charge. If your account balance goes below £0 without this arrangement in place, this is an ‘unarranged overdraft’ and penalties can be high.


Overtime

Extra hours you work beyond your normal hours, often for extra pay.
