Unauthorised Overdraft Charges Warning
Hello,
I'd like to warn other forum users about something I recently found out. I was accidentally overdrawn on my account last month and got a massive charge for it. I found out it was called an 'unauthorised overdraft' charge and that's why it was so ridiculously high! If you think you might need to use your overdraft some months - get approval from your bank first. The interest and charges is significantly lower than just overdrawing without the banks knowledge. They might charge you a set up fee but all in all, it should be cheaper if you do sometimes get overdrawn.
Hope this helps some people!

I know what you mean, I had
Overdrawn Account Charges
How did you know that it was an excessive fee? I have a overdraft privelage on my account. It's for $500. It came with my checking account. If you have an overdraft presented to your bank, they pay it. They charge a fee of $30 per item. They give you 30 days to bring the account o a positive balance.
