Banks Hit Jobless with Fees on Unemployment Comp

Wrong - the software WOULD have to be changed to recognize the welfare accounts. So...WHO is going to PAY for that work to be done?



The software has to be set with any new account. The banks give different overdraft privelidges to all their customers. Hence, when the account is set up for a welfare customer, they can simply specify not to allow overdraft.

Vinny, there is no sense having a conversation with you since you refuse to answer questions. Typical response when there is no substance.

Kelp, how many phone calls are the welfare customers making?

No - you are confusing account information with software.

Overdraft? We aren't talking about overdraft, but account / ATM fees

Right, like the fees some of the banks are charging when welfare customers overdraw their accounts eventhough the bank has the ability to not allow the account to be overdrawn.

Right, and the account information is what the software usesto set the parameters. Same account information can be used to allow the software to ensure the account cannot be overdrawn. No cost associated with that, there is a loss of fees though, specially since those with very limited income are much more prone to overdraw their account. They are without any doubt praying on these people.

Now, the USA is a major capitalist country, so there shouldn't be an objection to a company making money off stupid people. There is no doubt that is exactly what they are doing though.
