Good news


I had a letter from my bank today, on real paper.

It said: 'As of April  6th, we are reducing your arranged overdraft fees to 49.5%.'

I wonder what I am paying now?

I love banks. They deserve all the money they work so hard for.

  1. Here it stands at 14.5 % I think. And that's a lot, too.

    1. We can't get a credit card for less than 23%, but that's cheaper than an overdraft. Things, can only get better...

  2. Current base rate: .75%. My bank was one that was saved from failure by government bail-outs of billions. That was your money.

  3. Real paper with gold-embossed letterhead, no doubt. This letter's a keeper.

  4. My card is 14.74 and I think that's outrageous. And I pay it, of course. It's so easy...

  6. Actually as the banks are disappearing from our towns, why are we actually using them? There is the post office of course..

    1. No! It was an accident when I tried to delete a spammer's comment! Please re-write it.
