Afternoon all,
I've been reading a lot recently about bank charges - and given the amount of money that has been refunded.. I can only see one possible outcome - which will mean that the the banks start charging exorbitant monthly fees for the privilege of managing your money.
Currently, I dont use my overdraft - there's always a small portion of money left over each month after I've paid all my bills etc so in effect the bank are administering my account for free (save the small portion of debit interest that they take) - as such, I dont see how there can be any other outcome than being charged. Personally, I'd be aggrieved to pay £9 a month...even if it does get 13% off a day at a spa - or 20% off wine if I buy a million bottles! (I talk now of Natwest's Advantage Gold current account)
Anyway - anybody else see this happening?
