High bank fees? Portuguese people say so.

Portuguese people complain that bank fees are increasingly high, with almost half stating they pay up to 60 euros annually, and 26% between 60 and 120 euros.  

The study is conducted by Nickel and Data E, and shared by Notícias ao Minuto. The data reflects the dissatisfaction of the Portuguese with bank costs, as more than half of the respondents (55%) are unhappy, and 61% consider the commission amounts to be high. 

Although less than 2% claim to pay more than 120 euros annually to the bank in commissions, and more than one in five do not pay any commissions at all, the data conclude a general dissatisfaction.

In a statement, Nickel's CEO, João Guerra, explains that bank fees are "a recurring issue", but justified by concerns about bank profitability.

Bank commissions on home loans: How much do they cost?

Want to buy a house using a mortgage and are now facing the issue of bank commission costs in this process? Find out how much they can represent.

In addition to all the capital that must be available initially to buy a house with a mortgage (amount of the percentage not lent by the bank and taxes), banks also charge processing fees.

Within these values, you must pay bank commissions such as the evaluation commission, the account opening commission, the process study commission, and formalization.
