Here in at least the state of California (not sure if this is country wide) those bank "convenience" fees are limited to no more than $1.50 by law.

Yes cos California is little Europe and we love the modern thinking

Are you talking credit card fees or bank transaction fees?

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That fee charged for simply using your debit card at a POS.

That's more of a California thing. They're talking about the fee charged by the CC company to the merchant, which is usually absorbed by the merchant. You're talking about businesses charging you extra for using your credit card, which I have only seen in California.

My bank (RBC) charges me $2.50 after 10 or so free transactions, doubled if tapped.

I switched to Neo and I love it.
