Bank charge
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term bank charge covers all charges and fees made by a bank to their customers. In common parlance, the term often relates to charges in respect of personal current accounts or checking account. These charges may take many forms, including:
- monthly charges for the provision of an account
- charges for specific transactions (other than overdraft limit excesses)
- interest in respect of overdrafts (whether authorised or unauthorised by the bank)
- charges for exceeding authorised overdraft limits, or making payments (or attempting to make payments) where no authorised overdraft exists.
