- marklubi 3y agoCan you provide a citation on that one? I've never heard of such an absurd issue. The closest I can think of is when a bank tried to charge my son for using their coin counting machine because he didn't have an account there (he's a minor, but I had an account).
- jdietrich 3y agoMany business accounts have a monthly allowance of free cash deposits, but the standard fee is 30¢ per $100. https://www.bankofamerica.com/salesservices/smallbusiness/resources/business-schedule-fees/ https://www.bankofamerica.com/salesservices/smallbusiness/re... https://www08.wellsfargomedia.com/assets/pdf/small-business/information-schedule.pdf https://www08.wellsfargomedia.com/assets/pdf/small-business/...
- marklubi 3y agoThanks for the details. While I think it's ridiculous, a 0.3% fee for over $20k in deposited cash per month doesn't sound unreasonable for handling risk. Personally, I wouldn't be banking with either of those companies because I think they just exist as parasites. Find a good credit union.
- ejstronge 3y agoIt’s not absurd - the bank has to spend money to move depositors’ cash. This is a standard part of a commercial banking relationship
- shapefrog 3y agoUK banks are 1.2% for human / 0.6% to use the machine - no free amount. https://www.barclays.co.uk/content/dam/documents/business/Accounts/BAR_9918661_0922_WCAG.pdf https://www.barclays.co.uk/content/dam/documents/business/Ac... Consumer banking is a very different beast to business banking.
