Commonwealth Bank slugs customers with ridiculous new fee to withdraw their money in shock announcement

  • Bank sent an email announcement to customers on Monday 

Australia biggest bank is now charging its customers a fee if they want to withdraw their own money at a branch.

Commonwealth Bank said in an email sent to customers on Monday that it would be closing its ‘Complete Access Account’ and migrating customers to its ‘Smart Access Account’.

The new account from January 6 will includes a $3 fee tacked onto every withdrawal at a branch, a post office or by phone.

The bank in recent years has insisted its branch network is not transitioning to ‘cashless’ after opening a number of ‘Specialist Centres’, which do not have tellers that handle physical cash.
