Bank fee waiver

10 years ago

As many of you know who live in Hungary and have local bank accounts that here they charge practically for everything (probably to even look at your own money, LOL!). Well they threw as a bone so to speak. I think starting in February you can request that fee be waived for taking out your own money but you have to request the bank to do so. In good Hungarian fashion this will require to go to your bank, take a number, wait then sit down with a teller who will fill out forms in triplicate make you sign (that you asked for this break) give you your own copy then you are set to go. This may only add up to couple of hundred forints but hey I take what I can get cause they charge you for everything else! Be safe!
