Thinking about getting a BOB BRO Savings Account? It's a great choice, especially for students aged 16 to 21-22. This account is designed for young adults and students, and the best part – no need to worry about keeping a minimum balance.

Now, let's talk about why students should consider it:

Benefits for Students​

Complimentary Airport Lounge Access: If you travel a few times a year, this account gives you free access to domestic airport lounges (2 times every quarter). Nice perk, right?

Concessional Interest Rates on Education Loans: Planning on an education loan? With BOB BRO, you get a 0.15% interest rate discount and zero processing fees. That means more savings during your loan repayments.

Auto Sweep Facility: Your money doesn't just sit there. This feature helps your idle funds earn more for you, even while they're in your account.

Drawbacks to Keep in Mind​

Debit Card Charges: Although you get a free debit card, watch out for issuance and renewal fees. It's not completely fee-free.

Average User Experience: The app and net banking work, but they might not be as smooth as you expect. If you love a super user-friendly interface, this might be a small downside.

Important Terms to Know​


Joint Account for Students Above 18: Even if you're over 18, this is a joint account with your parent or guardian. Both of you will handle the account.

Account Closure Charges: Closing the account within the first year might cost you Rs. 200 after the initial 14 days.

Overall Review​

BOB BRO Savings Account is a good deal, especially for students. The loan discount, airport lounge access, and auto-sweep feature make it stand out. Just keep in mind it's a joint account.

Recommendation​

Yes, it's useful, especially for the low maintenance and education loan benefits. But for day-to-day ease, consider having another account with a private bank for a more user-friendly experience.
