Press Release Body = As per a survey, young Britons are relying more on their cheap credit cards, which are given to them as student credit cards. Use of such cards have reached an alarming stage as it was found that one in five people between the age group of 18 and 29 have already overdrawn on their current account. This current trend is a result of some initial facilities provided by the banks like interest free over-draft offers.
London (debt-consolidation-park) July 15, 2006: A survey done by uswitch.com has revealed that young Britons are changing their buying habits due to their cheap credit cards and consequently many of them are permanently overdrawn on their current account. This can lead to some dismal consequences as the survey found that 21% of young people are permanently found in red, which is almost twice the national average of 11%.

Nick white, head of personal finance at uswitch.com quoted that, \"In most cases the first time young people are introduced to credit will be in the form of an overdraft, often interest-free, and understandably there is a temptation to utilise what is on offer without thinking about the long term consequences.\" For additional information on the news, that is the subject of this release (or for a sample, copy, or demo), contact Webmaster, or visit www.debt-consolidation-park.co.uk
