bank fees

Checking account costs

Bank fees are charges that banks impose on customers for account services, transactions, or penalties.

Common examples include monthly maintenance fees, overdraft fees, ATM fees, and wire transfer charges.

I switched banks to avoid the high bank fees.

The term often carries a note of complaint, as many fees seem excessive or arbitrary.
