Commonwealth Bank urged to rethink 'terrible decision' to charge cash withdrawal fee
www.abc.net.au
Some Commonwealth Bank customers who withdraw cash at branches or post offices will soon be charged $3 for the privilege, after the bank announced it was migrating a legacy everyday account to a newer offering.

I hope this inspires a massive migration off CBA and a rollback of the policy. Because if it doesn’t, the other banks will be sure to follow.

    Most banks in Australia are completely free too. It’s only a couple of the biggest and shittiest banks (like Commbank) that have fees for regular use.

        Not no fees, but typically no fees for normal use. Most have international transaction fees. Some have fees for things like cheques (which are almost never used in Australia typically), either merely to have a cheque book or for expedited processing. Things like that. But it’s quite rare to have a fee just to have your account; that’s something mostly only the big 4 still do. They make enough profit off of loaning out your money for interest anyway.
