THREE SIMPLE STEPS TO FAIR FEES
Banks aren't supposed to get in the way of growing your savings.
We think the best defense against that happening is a vigilant customer.
1) Add up what you pay your bank.
If you keep a budget - and every Saver should - think of fees and service charges like you would a monthly utility bill. Keep track of every one of them, from transaction fees to ABM charges. Know what you spend, and ask yourself if you're getting good value for it.
2) Make your bank accountable.
If you're surprised by a fee, or you wonder what you're getting for it, ask the bank. If the answer seems reasonable, then at least you know. If it doesn't, remember that you have choices.
3) Spread the word, tell a friend.
You probably know someone who is as concerned and displeased by unfair bank fees as you are. Pass this site along to them so they too can add their voice and get it heard by those who need to hear it.
