it is not just BoA who is going to charge fees. It is all because of this government and their stupid rules for banks that is now costing the people who hardly can't afford it to pay even more.

Obama is the cause of all these fees due to his policies!

Wells is doing it too, but... only to their customers who do not have multiple accounts features with them (ie, if you do the other programs, its free)

I would move my saving from both Citibank and BoA and pay off and cut up my credit cards. Then I would look for a local bank or credit union with better services and lower or no fees. Time for their customers to take these greedsters down a notch or two.

Default Obama on Debit Card Fees

Obama, Banks Trade Fire In Debit-Card Debate : NPR

Quote:
President Obama has waded into the controversy over bank-card fees, suggesting that Bank of America is mistreating its customers with a plan to start charging a $5 monthly fee for the use of its debit card.
Quote:
"This is exactly why we need this Consumer [Financial] Protection Bureau that we set up, that is ready to go," he said.
Yay. More government to set prices.

He is right. Leave it to the simpletons to play to the whims of large corporations and financial institutions. Small banks rule!
