Banks push new fees as loan profits shrink
The AP reports banks face slim profits as rates stay low and new rules curb traditional fees. Major banks broke out with debit card and monthly account fees to offset lost income, drawing public anger and protests. Bank of America plans five dollar monthly debit fees spurring criticism from Consumers Union and lawmakers. The wave includes Wells Fargo testing three dollar debit fees, SunTrust five dollar basic checking debit fees, Regions four dollar debit fees, and Zit’s twenty dollar monthly balance threshold. Protesters like Patricia Phelan and Norma Garcia decry the practice as unfair to customers.
