Jesus Christ!!! You guys pay That much in charges!!!! That is a rip off & a half!!!
I thought the $15NZD they charge over here was too steep!
They tried increasing it to $30NZD at one stage, but there was so much clamour about it that in the end they reduced it back down again.
Also, I'm afraid I'm like mucks in this, I don't generally spend more money than i have, plus I pay most of my bills in advance (before the actual bill comes out) & I don't HP, so I don't have any debts except for the house. So that keeps my bills down to living costs.
Plus, I'm stingy, when I saw just how high the monthly fees for electronic transactions were on my bank statements I went back to using cash wherever i can. Helps prevent accidental overspending & impulse buying too, as I always know just exactly how much money I have in my wallet.
I'm sorry, but I think even £12 is apalling!
