Tesuuryo

In your country, do you have to pay tesuryo at bank when you make a payment?

It depends on the transaction you make. Some need some not.

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.

I hate it when I have to pay 525 yen just to pay for something. It's totally excessive.

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.

oh yeah, most pay their bills (water, gas, heat, rent, etc.) by writing a check. no service charge.

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.

And those numbers change a lot - sometimes 105 yen sometimes 525 yen. Annoying esp with a small buy.
