This is the problem. Most people are happy to let the banks take their money for nothing in return.

Fees because they are doing you a wonderful favour by keeping your money.

   Account keeping fee
   Early Account Closing Fees
   Negative Balance Closing Fees
   Mini-Statements at Home Bank ATM
   Full Statement at Home Bank ATM
   Transaction Fee for Non-Home Bank ATM
   Denied Transaction Fee for Non-Home Bank ATM
   Balance Inquiry Fee for Non-Home Bank ATM
   Fee for going over ATM transaction limit
   Check Card Replacement Fee
   Foreign Transaction Fee (with Check Card use)
   Fee for going over check writing limits
   Checking account monthly fee
   Overdraft Fees
   Continuous Overdraft Fees (not the same as overdraft fees)
   NSF Fees
   Returned Deposited Item Fee
   Overdraft Protection Transfer Fee
   Returned Statement Fee
   Dormant Account Fee
   Counter Check Fee
   Online Bill Pay Fee
   Phone Bill Pay Service Fee
   Failed Payment Fee (Online Bill Pay)
   Excess Activity Fee for Savings Accounts

You pay for the CEO's $10billion bonus.

Gotta keep those bankers in business.

Sounds like a list of American Bank Fees; check gives it away.

What would be the point of charging a negative balance closing fee?

Politicians and Nappies need to be changed often and for the same reason.

One trouble with political jokes is that they often get elected.

I sure hope that none of the bankers get bonuses in the billions, its bad enough in millions.
It is real hypocricy when politicians talk about the Australian people being very financially savvy, when in reality only about 20% may be so, while the other 70% are completely ignorant.
Even on this forum, it is amazing that no one would comment on my post about the "super gabfest" yet it has now and will have big consequences in the future.
I,am sure that you qitctec know what I,am talking about.
