Bank of America nixes $5 debit card fee

Bank of America Corp. is scrapping its plan to charge a $5 monthly debit card fee. The bank's decision to drop the fee came after a roar of customer outrage in recent weeks over the fee. Other major banks, including JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Wells Fargo & Co., already canceled tests of similar debit card fees last week.

Senh: It's good to see that the banks are listening to their customers. It's also good to see that the public come together and have a positive affect on debit card fees. I only wish the airlines would do the same with their fees.
