taguchi 0 Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 In your country, do you have to pay tesuryo at bank when you make a payment? Link to post Share on other sites
tsondaboy 0 Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 It depends on the transaction you make. Some need some not. Link to post Share on other sites
gamera 0 Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Taguchi, I hear people need to pay tesuryo just to hold accounts in banks in U.S.A if the money quantity were less than their standards. If the standard were $1,000 and you just have $900 in your account, you have to pay some tesuryo. So maybe they need to pay a lot tesuryo in any case? I am not sure. Link to post Share on other sites

DokiDokiWakuWaku 0 Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I hate it when I have to pay 525 yen just to pay for something. It's totally excessive. Link to post Share on other sites
dizzy 0 Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 most checking accounts want U 2 have a minimum $200.00 in the account at all times. most savings accounts R lower ($100?). but it all depends on the state and even the bank branch. my bank in chicago charges me $10/month for every month that my balance is under $200.00. Wire Tranfers R considered expensive and unecessary ($7.95) per wire transfer. so one does furikomi, everybody writes checks. Link to post Share on other sites
dizzy 0 Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 oh yeah, most pay their bills (water, gas, heat, rent, etc.) by writing a check. no service charge. Link to post Share on other sites
gamera 0 Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 I have heard it , dizzy. Even for credit card payments, people in the states write cheques checking the amount at the end of each and every month, right? It's kinda hassle for banks lol They just make a direct debit from our bank account in Japan. Link to post Share on other sites
klingon 10 Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 And those numbers change a lot - sometimes 105 yen sometimes 525 yen. Annoying esp with a small buy. Link to post Share on other sites
