In April, ’Washington Mutual raised its overdraft fee in most states to $ 34 from $ 32. Also this year, the bank increased the number of times a day that a customer can be hit with this fee, from five to seven ’Washington Mutual spokesman Gary Kishner says the bank raises fees partly due to " competitive factors". This year, (Bank of America raised the fee charged on the first day a customer overdraws to $ 25 from $ 20. The bank also raised the number of times a customer can be hit with this fees per day to seven from five. And it’s told customers that most signature debit-card transactions will reduce their balances that same day and be subject to fees if there isn’t enough money in the account. (Before, consumers often avoided this fee if they deposited money before a purchase cleared
