Someone has just said to me that I'm not allowed to have more than 1 student account, is this true?

I would say it is only not allowed if it specifically states in any of the terms and conditions that you cannot hold that account if you have a student account elsewhere. I doubt that would be the case though!!

If you like, I'm on a money forum as well, I could ask there for you?

I asked on moneysavingexpert...

I've not read all the terms and conditions, maybe I should.

Most of the Student Accounts with special offers etc have a bit in their terms and conditions where it says your student loans, earnings have to be paid in to it i.e. its your main account, so generally you wouldn't be allowed more than 1. I'm not sure how the banks monitor it or how strict they are about it though.
