Deal With Rising Bank Fees

By , About.com GuideMarch 5, 2011

Follow me on:

Does your bank want a raise?  If you get mail from your bank these days, odds are good that you'll hear about fee increases and other unwelcome changes to your accounts.

Banks aren't earning what they used to.  New laws are changing the landscape and making it more likely that your bank will raise fees or create new ones.

If you're feeling nickel-and-dimed, figure out if the costs are worth it.  Don't just accept rising fees, but don't freak out either -- in some cases we've been getting a good deal.  Evaluate your bank's fees and performance, then decide whether to stay or go.

Believe it or not banks are not gods! People working in banks are real people! Someone has finally put this in print “Hot Sexy Banker Chicks.” Funny quick read puts retail banking into perspective.
