Depositing cash into their own bank accounts is costing Dutch
Citizens approximately €5 ($6.82) at a time - after they have done six
free deposits -Dutch banks says it had to introduce these charges and fees because "processing cash is expensive". Children and students, they say will not have to pay a fee.
As unbelievable as this may sound it is true and worse is that the Dutch center right coalition Government of Rutte and Samson has not taken any action against this disguised form of pure " robbery",
Cash still has a "dominant role" when it comes to small-value transactions. It also remains essential form of payment for lower-income consumers who may not have access to alternative payment options, and it is widely used for retail sector payments.
"Small folks" have made businesses, including banks, who they are, and many companies can collapse as a result of the same "little people" united strength. It's really sad that in 2014 - people still constantly need to fight for what is theirs instead of sharing what we have, so we all can gain.
