I just want to point out to all those people saying that people can't expect Free Checking to be Free. First of all if it's not free checking then don't call it that. Second, a bank's business model is traditionally based on loaning money out and charging interest. They still do this only now on top of that they also under-handedly charge people outrageous fees in the guise of a so-called "courtesy" of allowing essentially unlimited overdrafts. The worst part of this is that this kills the people who are the most financially unstable and worsens these peoples' financial situations. <br> The banks will never willingly limit the fees. Legislation should be passed to require banks to limit these fees, especially on smaller accounts and those who have less cash-flow and are less able to afford the high fees.
