Checking

Recent approvals by the Federal Reserve Board have led to a final rule on debit card interchange fees that placed a cap on these fees for large card issuers as of October 1, 2011. As a result, some banks are doing away with free checking and have begun experimenting with new ways to charge their customer’s fees. For example, some have proposed charging a fee per month for the privilege of having a debit card with their institution. To make up for lost income, banks may impose more fees such as increased requirements for minimum balances, increased monthly fees, maintenance fees and fees for using ATM’s for non customers.
