I don’t have a checkbook since I am not from the US, also stop woth the bootkicking/victim blaming, they literally did shit like if you had some small charges that should have been fine, then you had a bigger charge that put you over the limit, then they processed the big one first (even though it was the last) then processed the small ones after and then they didn’t charge one overdraft fee, but multiple.
also there is the obvious case of the 2008 financial crisis, make some bootlicker argument for that, mate
I don’t have a checkbook since I am not from the US
So you don’t have to deposit an amount near your withdrawals? I’m curious about these places without overdraft fees. How far in the negative do they allow you to go?
Even without using a checkbook, I just got used to getting close to my limit. I deposit $100. I’d make a mental note that I spent $20 here, $50 there, and $25 at another place. Then I’d consider my money give, giving the transactions a few days to clear (back before things were so instant). Suck it banks, no overdraft fees this time!
Well we use cards here, mostly debit, if you try to pay for something or withdraw that’s over what you have the transaction simply fails.
The US system is like living in cavemen times.
if you make a transaction for example through online banking and you don’t have the money needed, it will sit there for a while waiting for money to arrive then it gets cancelled if money doesn’t arrive in time.
aka sub-prime lending. this sort of thing has happened before, “buying on margin” in the 1920s, for the stock market. it didnt end well then either.
the way that laws work is that if you sign a contract, it’s legally binding - so if you take out a giant loan to buy a house & cant make the mortgage payments, you’re out of house and you’re liable to pay back the loan. you gotta read the fine print before you sign anything.
I mean if you did withdraws down below the amount in your account and then paid overdraft fees, who’s fault is that? If you want to spend money you don’t have use a credit card.

Yes, as per the explicit terms of your account agreement.

Yes, where a lot of people took out loans they knew they wouldn’t be able to repay.

Lol bro what primitive money grubbing system is this? I am always aware of my bank balance via an app (UPI, India).
This should be obvious: Transactions should fail if there’s not enough balance. No overdraft bullshit.

None. None negative. They’ll deny the transaction or NSF the check if there’s not enough in the account to cover it.

Dude, there was a systemic failure, the banks were deregulated, then the rating agencies misrated loans to keep making money.
Blaming individuals for “not reading the fine print” is just another form of bootlicking/victim blaming
the truth is the truth, even if you dont like it.
Yeah man, it’s the average Joe who’s wrong, and the corporate banking investors who are right. Good and normal take lol

They do fail if there’s not enough balance. There is no overdraft bullshit, if you ask your bank to act that way.
So in North America, you have to tell your bank to screw you over?
