Bank of America just tagged me on a new $3.00 fee for an "image charge."

I have to drop the paper bank statements in order to lose that one.
Of course this targets the poor and disabled disproportionately who may not
have
online access.

Then too were one to drop it paper statements the likelyhood of
bouncing a check goes up.

As I have to slice the pie thin some months that three dollar charge almost 
cost me a bounced check or ATM overdraft charge.

As a matter of curiousity I wonder just how many millions 
of dollars BoA makes off of this dodge?

It DID prevent me from setting up a Skype account to reschedule a doctors
appointment and that runs into more $$$ and a somewhat more dire issue.

These little charges can seem insignificant taken in isolation 
however when taken as a whole on a national level they add up to serious cash.

It reminds me of my grandfather and his policy of paying bills at the 
last minute because as he put it better he collect the interest on it
than some utility company.
