A financial institution designed to nickel and dime its members to no end. Banks complain about Credit Unions (CU) because they are "not for profit" and subsequently do not have to pay taxes. However despite the competitive nature of banks and credit unions, banks have not suffered any loss in profit. On the contrary, banks have enjoyed record breaking profits increasingly each year. Banks will always be finding new ways to take your money to increase their profits so all the bitching about credit unions because they don't have as many fees is just whiney suck ass for them.
Examples of Bank Fees:
Application fee
Activation fee
Teller fee
Drive up fee
Balance Inquiry fee
Balance transfer fee
Account opening fee
Account closing fee

Savings account monthly service fee

IRS refund anticipation loan fees (up to 1,700% APR)
when do the fees end? Banks need MORE Credit unions to compete against. Credit unions have their own stupid fees but with the amount of interest saved in most loans, it's worth it to investiaget both.
