Rabid cheapskate consumer here.
Wells Fargo has decided that we need to have a $1500 minimum balance or auto deposit of a paycheck or SS check (neither apply to us) to avoid monthly fees of $7 on our FREE checking account. OK, they don't pay interest on a $1500 dead balance so that means the free account costs us maybe $22/year.
Today on the monthly statement I see that they will start charging $3/each month we use their debit card at other than their ATM. There is a warehouse food store that takes cash or debit only; I'd gotten in the habit of using the debit card there. Called a different bank we've an account with and they offer a free debit card, so ordered a couple up.
I like Wells Fargo because they are available down south and they have slick ATMs that will accept a stack of checks, read them, and do a deposit slip with images of the checks. Very cool. Niggle fees? Not so much
