Your Wallet: Crazy transaction fees
Have you ever looked at a bill or a receipt and thought, “15 cents for what? What’s a landing fee? A $2.95 convenience fee? Why?”
We asked you for photos of your crazy transaction fees or charges, and you sent us some great ones. Los Angeles Times consumer columnist David Lazarus joined us to dig into your receipts and tell us why we pay these fees.
We’re here to help you navigate this changed world and economy.
Our mission at Marketplace is to raise the economic intelligence of the country. It’s a tough task, but it’s never been more important.
In the past year, we’ve seen record unemployment, stimulus bills, and reddit users influencing the stock market. Marketplace helps you understand it all, will fact-based, approachable, and unbiased reporting.
