credit card maintainance fees?

updated sun 31 aug 97

 

James Bretes on mon 11 aug 97

Speaking of credit cards, I have went to my second bank now, because
they have raised my fees from $5.00 a month to $30. after the end of
year. Than I went to First of America...In the begining it was $10
dollars now it has gone up to $17.00 also with 3.75% on my deposits... I
believe it that much, it might be 5%.

My question is are all maintainance fees and Other (fees) are about the
same with other potters. Or am I just have the wrong bank again..????

This does not include the % on the visa deposits...either...
I also have my own scanner at home...that is hooked up at there bank...

I need some input on maybe changing banks, before next year art shows.

I think others would like to know what bank has the lowest % on deposits
and fees...

thanks
Jim

Investigate NOVUS. Their rates are lower and no monthly charges .I
believe there is a sign up fee.

Jim - I got upset with our bank several years ago, and started looking for
a new ome. Called every bank in town, and found one that had no charges
for deposits or monthly fees for small businesses. It took a bit of time
but was worthwhile in the long run. The bank we use now, is a local home
town bank, maybe start with those.
