Has your bank started raising fees?

This article is about one national bank in the US that is going to start charging its customers a fee to use their debit cards. It’s the result of regulatory changes enacted since the financial collapse of September, 2008.

I’m going to be scrutinizing my bank statements carefully from now on to avoid seemingly small fees, which add up over the year. I haven’t found where my bank has started raising fees yet, but I’m wary of them.

If your bank raises fees, how will it affect you?

Would you change banks?

Would you start using other methods of payment?

How would this change your life?
