Bank Charges

[Troubadour]

Which they have every right to do. If you don't agree you move banks... simple

Most banks in the Phil charge for depositing money .... and if you have a business account like me you pay for every single transaction which adds up to a hell of a lot of money each year.

That;s exactly what I did ... Simple.

Questions should be raised about what rights the banks should have.

Soon there will be no cash - soon all employers will have to pay to bank accounts. When you have no choice about having a bank account, then the regulation of the banks should reflect the necessity.

Please don't talk about free markets and good deals - It is all rigged by them. They buy the politicians of both sides and get laws passed to give them rights they should not have.

There used to be a 19th century law called the truckers act which was repealed by the Thatcher government in the 1980's. It was introduced to stop companies paying in tokens that could only be spent at the company store or paying in kind with goods and services.

The reason the tories repealed it was because the law said that all workers had the right to be paid in "coin of the realm" and the trade unions used this law to stop companies forcing people to have their wages paid by cheque or directly into a bank account.

Seems that wherever you find problems you'll find "maggie wos here" scribbled on the wall.
