Banking fees? Never paid any as far as I can tell, not for the ordinary things. My bank here in Norway won't pay a bill if there isn't enough money in the account. It sends me a text and an email to say what happened and doesn't charge me anything.

The only fees I pay are a small percentage for management of mutual funds.

I’m assuming parent meant fees like X per month for having a debit/credit card or for access to “online” banking.

You are right I pay an annual fee for my credit card and debit card. No fees for using them or access to online banking. The bank is online only anyway.

Yeah that is what I meant. Basically having online banking + debit/credit card. Also for under 2X years old (depends on the bank) they are usually free.
