One of the first options many people think of when they need short-term credit is a bank overdraft. But as many people have noticed, bank overdrafts are an expensive option even when the overdraft is authorised. Especially when the amount borrowed is small, bank overdrafts are not much cheaper than payday loans. The bank may charge you a fee to set up the overdraft as well as a daily fee of £1/day (£30/month). Unauthorised overdrafts may cost as much as £2/day (£60/month). Partial repayments of the overdraft often have no impact on the daily flat fee.
