Subject: Bank carges in the Eurozone Posted on: Sat, 05 Apr 2008 15:30:34 +0200

After being charged EUR 13 (transfer+correspondence) to transfer EUR 10 to
Berlin I have been doing some checking

a) the charge is contrary to the Fortis/ABN Amro's tariffs
b)There is no mention of correspondence charges in the tariffs, nor have we had
any correspondence from the bank
c) They made the same charges in 2007 and we didn't spot it
d) There was no charge in 2006
e) When I recently transferred EUR 1300 to a UK bank neither bank added charges
and the receiving bank used the current exchange rate

If I complain about a) will they notice e)

Do we really have to check that big banks haven't got mistakes in their
software.
