This is all a bit exclusive. Widening membership

You can have a bank account when under 18. I think
my bank let me get
my own account (rather than my mum having an account in my name) when
I was 13. Obviously, you can't get any kind of credit facility (which
includes standard debit cards), but that's not an issue for us.

Aha. Seems there are accounts for the 11 to
15 age range (Barclays,
Santander, etc)
But I think membership should be open to all..... id checks will exclude
some.
