From California to New York, legislative bodies across the United States are considering eliminating or reducing the surcharges that banks impose on non-customers who make $12 million in withdrawals from other banks’ ATM machines. On average, noncustomers earn a wage of $ 24 per hour and pay ATM fees of $ 3.00 per transaction. It is estimated that banks would be willing to maintain services for 5 million transactions at $ 1.25 per transaction, while noncustomers would attempt to conduct 19 million transactions at that price.
